BASIC LIP BALM

It's very easy and you can endup using 2 ingredients only: beeswax and coconut oil.

Add essential oils for beautiful scent and additional healing properties. Remember to use the highest quality essential oils, especially when you put them onto your lips. Otherwise, it's better to avoid them, as you can even get your lips irritated with poor essential oils.


To make the basic lip balm, simply melt together the same amounts of beeswax and coconut oil ( for one lip balm 1 teaspoon of each will be sufficient ). Preferably use a double boiler, so they do not heat too much. Mix the oils well and wait for about 5 minutes until everything is totally melted.

After that, let the mixture cool down for a while, add essential oils. You should add about 1-2 drops total. Essential oils that are recommended for lips are: peppermint, lavender, grapefruit, cinnamon, clove, chamomile, Ginger, cardamom. They will add moisturizing and calming properties to the balm.

To store this lip balm, use an empty lip balm tube or a small container. You can use the syringe to fill it up easily.
