2 Tbsp unrefined coconut oil
2 Tbsp shea butter
2 Tbsp beeswax pastilles
10-20 drops essential oils (I chose peppermint)
pipette for transferring to empty lip balm tubes
empty lip balm tubes (approx. 12)
Combine the coconut oil, shea butter and beeswax in the top of a double boiler set on low. Alternately, you can add these ingredients in a glass bowl and set atop a pan of boiling water. Stir gently until melted. Pipe the melted oils into the empty lip balm tubes. Keeping lips off, allow tubes to cool upright for a few hours, or store in refrigerator to harden more quickly. Enjoy! Each of these lip balms were made for under 25 cents each!
