Ingredients:
Instructions:
Melt beeswax, remove from heat and add oils. Add as much beet juice as desired for color. Store in jar.
2. Lip Balm
- 3 tablespoons grated unbleached beeswax
- 5 teaspoons carrier oil (sunflower, castor or jojoba)
- 6 or 7 drops essential oil (such as lime, lemon, tangerine, grapefruit or peppermint)
- 1 teaspoons honey, for flavor
Instructions:
Melt the beeswax and carrier oil together in the top of a double boiler, stirring to combine. Remove from heat; add honey and essential oil. Mix thoroughly so the honey does not clump. To add a little color, stir in a tiny dab of lipstick with a coffee stirrer. Pour the mixture into containers; let sit 20 minutes before covering or moving. For glossier lip balm, use 2 teaspoons wax and 8 teaspoons carrier oil.
