This is a simple recipe for lip balm. I chose orange and clove for my oils, but you could substitute any oil that you like.

Equipment

  • mini crock pot

Ingredients
  

  • 4 oz Coconut Oil About 6 TBS
  • 4 oz Shea Butter About 6 TBS
  • 3 oz Bees Wax About 4 TBS
  • 25 drops Clove Essential Oil
  • 25 drops Orange Essential Oil

Instructions
 

  • Melt all of the oils and the bees wax together, stirring a bit. This can be done in a double boiler (a bowl nestled in a pot of simmering water) or you can use a small crock pot. Once the oils and bees wax are melted together, add in the essential oils of your choice. I used approximately 25 drops of clove oil and approximately 25 drops of orange oil. Lastly, using a pipette or a medicine dropper, fill your containers. If using tubes, makes sure they are rolled all the way down and are ready to be filled. Let cool, put the lids on, label and enjoy!
