Vanilla Butter Lip Balm
This homemade lip balm is so good that you might want to eat it - my children tell me it tastes delicious.
1 tablespoon cocoa butter
1 tablespoon beeswax shavings or pearls
1 tablespoon almond oil
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Melt beeswax and cocoa butter in a beaker placed in a small pot of simmering water
- When beeswax and cocoa butter are melted, remove beaker from heat and stir in almond oil and vanilla
- Pour liquid into stainless steel lip balm tins and allow to cool until solid (20 minutes)
Store in a cool dry place. Makes great gifts.
