Making More Lip Balm

[ 4 ] February 16, 2011 |

This morning I made some more lip balm, because I needed some colorless ones for Everett. I end up giving these away to people so it was time to make more. I also added a little color in some for myself.

If you haven’t already watched my How To Make Your Own Lip Balm video, you might want to check that out too.

Here’s the quantities I used for this batch:

Beeswax – 21g
Coconut Oil – 15g
Olive Oil – 12g
Pepperment Oil – about 10 drops

Just melt on a low temp or  in the microwave. This time I used a tiny funnel I picked up which helped a lot while filling the tubes.
