Natural Lip Balm

My daughter and I use so much lip gloss, lip balm, carmex etc...... I started to think if I could slowly change the items my family uses the most to natural products the healthier we will be. Starting with lip balm or lip gloss. I found this supper easy recipe for an all natural lip balm. The recipe is below and it was a great project for my daughter and I to do. Check it out......

 

All you need is:

Coconut oil

Beeswax

Containers

Vitamin E

You will also need a grater for the beeswax and a purex or any microwavable glass.

 Basic ratio:

• 2 parts coconut oil
• 1 part beeswax
• a few drops of vitamin E

I used 2 tablespoon of coconut oil and 1 tablespoon of beeswax.

That measurement made 3 full 2oz containers

The vitamin E is not only good for your skin it also helps the shelf life. You can also add a few drops of food coloring and or essential oils.  

 

 

microwave for 1 min then stir.

it will take about 3 min total.

 

Pour into containers (be carful very hot)

Let set....

(Over night)

 

Your Lips Will Love You.....
