Materials:

• 2 Tbsp beeswax (about 1 oz) - some people complain that beeswax dries out there lips, so lanolin (an oil secreted by wool-bearing animals to protect their coats from water) is a great substitute

• 2 Tbsp coconut oil

• 2 Tablespoons shea butter

• 12 lip balm containers

• honey (optional)

• vitamin E

Directions:

1. Melt beeswax in a small pan or crockpot over low heat. Add coconut oil and shea butter until all ingredients a melted. Add a few drops essential oil if desired. I did not use any essential oil and it is smells wonderfully like honey!

2. Using a small medicinal dropper, pour the melted liquid into your lip balm containers. Add a few extra drops to the top after filling each container as the ingredients will shrink as they cool.

3. Cool completely to harden. Cover with cap and decorate or label as desired.
