Equipment

  • double boiler 
  • Food scale, with tare option
  • Measuring Cup Beakers
  • Wire Whisk
  • 12 lip balm containers

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz beeswax pellets
  • 2 tbsp. unrefined coconut oil
  • 2 tsp. sweet almond oil
  • 3 drops clove essential oil
  • 12 drops sweet orange oil

Instructions

  • Line your lip balm containers up so they are ready to be filled.
  • Add beeswax to the top half of your double broiler and begin to melt over medium heat. If your beeswax is not in pellet form, chop is roughly so it melts easier. Be careful not to overheat.

  • Measure coconut oil and whichever other carrier oil you are using.
    2 tbsp. unrefined coconut oil, 2 tsp. sweet almond oil
  • Once your beeswax is fully melted (with no clumps), turn your heat down to low and stir in the coconut oil using the wire whisk until it is fully melted and incorporated. Repeat with the other carrier oil. Remove from heat and add the essential oils. Stir well.
