This is a lovely, smooth, cooling lip balm. It feels great on your lips and smells like Bert's Bees!
Ingredients
2 tbsp sweet almond oil
1 tbsp coconut oil
1½ tbsp grated beeswax
12 drops peppermint essential oil
6 drops rosemary essential oil
a few drops of vitamin E
Instructions
Melt almond oil, coconut oil and beeswax in a double boiler.
Remove from heat and add essential oils and vitamin E.
Stir well with a disposable spoon.
Pour into tubes or other molds.
Let harden thoroughly before capping.
Notes
If you prefer a harder lip balm you can increase the beeswax content. Also, add shea or cocoa butter if you desire for added creaminess - see the lemon-lime recipe for my take on it!
