Lip Balm Butter Recipe


This recipe is similar to Burt鈥檚 Bees Lip Balm. It has plenty of beeswax and shea butter in it. It seems to lend itself to minty essential oils as well as our lavender/lime essential oil blend.


Ingredients:


1 ounces beeswax beads


1 ounces shea butter


3/4 ounce borage seed oil(


you can use a less expensive oil such as sweet almond oil. Borage seed oil is the most moisturizing oil that we carry.)


1 teaspoon colored jojoba beads (optional)


Essential Oils 鈥?see below





Utensils needed: 8 ounce glass measuring cup, teaspoon measuring spoon, stainless spoon or wooden coffee stirrer and lip balm jars or lip balm tubes.


Put the beeswax beads, shea butter and jojoba beads in glass cup and melt in microwave. Be sure to microwave at 50% and 30 seconds at a time, stirring each time. When melted add oil. Microwave a little more if oil congeals mixture. It is important when working with a shea butter product not to get it above 160 degrees or it gets gritty Stir and add borage seed oil. When the mixture has cooled a little, add essential oil(s) and pour into containers. When cool, label your products.





Minty suggestions:


陆 teaspoon peppermint essential oil


or


陆 teaspoon spearmint essential oil


or


陆 teaspoon peppermint and 录 teaspoon wintergreen essential oils





Lavender/Lime 鈥?add 1 to 2 teaspoons essential oil blend 鈥?equal parts





For a softer lip balm, add another 陆 ounce of borage seed oil and/or omit jojoba beads.





Our natural lip balm tubes with the teal caps look really nice with lagoon green jojoba beads for a minty lip balm. You can see the lip balm color thru the tube.
