What I used:
2 tbls coconut oil
2 tbls beeswax
1 tbs grape seed oil
10 drops peppermint oil
Method I used:

I used an old pressed powder container That I had This is without the lid. |

Here is a great video from my friend Krista of Pyperhs Pagan Path showing her technique for making lip balm. You can also Google homemade lip balm to find many different recipes. If you decide to make your own lip balm or other beauty products I would love to here about it.

ReplyDeleteYou can replace the mint with any flavoring you like :)
