Making your own lip balm is easy! In a pyrex container that is placed in a water batch, melt 0.5 oz beeswax in 0.5 oz jojoba oil until the beeswax is completely melted. Add 0.75 oz coconut oil and let it melt. Take off the heat and add 0.75 oz shea butter and let it melt. Add a few drops of Vitamin E. If you want your entire batch with the same essential oil, add about 15 drops of essential oils. Be careful of photosensitivity if you are using citrus oils such as orange or lime. You can make it with cocoa butter as well as this will give you a chocolaty flavor. The mixture will harden very quickly so fill into your container of choice right away. | |
