Ingredients
4
tsp
beeswax pellets
5
tsp
tallow
1
tsp
liquid carrier oil
15
drops
essential oils
(any that are lip safe)
Instructions
Add the beeswax, tallow, and liquid oil into a small glass bowl or the top of a double boiler.
Fill the bottom pot with several inches of water and place the bowl or other pot on top.
Bring the water to a low boil over medium heat. Stir the ingredients as they melt.
Once melted add the essential oil.
Immediately pour the mixture into the lip balm containers and let cool until room temperature.
Notes
If your tallow is very soft at room temperature, you may need to add more beeswax to get a firmer consistency.
