What you will need |

  • Ingredients |

    • 29g of Carrier oil (e.g., sunflower oil, olive oil, jojoba oil) OR herb infused oil
    • 17g Beeswax (This can be pellets or a portion of a bar, whichever you have, as long as it is measured correctly.

  • Equipment |

  • *Optional |

    • Any scent you may be using. Just be sure to follow the usage amounts on the product label.

Step by Step Instructions |

1. Combine your carrier oil  of choice (or herb infused oil: learn how here) and your  beeswax  into a heat proof  glass beaker.

2. Next place the glass beaker into a pot with around 2-3 inches of water (double broiler).

3. Melt over low- medium heat. This should be done over 15-30 minutes, keeping a close eye on it.

4. Remove from heat and  cool to 165 degrees fahrenheit. 

5. While your lip balm is cooling, get your lip balm tray like this or a small short lip balm jar ready for the pour.

6. Once the temperature is cool, then pour into your desired vessel. If you pour while it is too hot, it will leave a small hole on the top of your lip balm in the lip balm tubes.

( Many add vitamin E oil as an oil preservative, this is optional if you are using a carrier oil with high vitamin E content.)
