Lip Balm – Grandmas Apple Pie

Lip Balm – Grandmas Apple Pie

Aromas of cinnamon and apple combine to make this a lip-smacking lip balm recipe.

What you need

6 tsp jojoba oil
1 tsp aloe vera oil
3 tsp of beeswax
4 drops cinnamon flavor Oil
4 drops of apple flavor Oil
2 drops of vanilla flavor Oil
(available from online suppliers)

Instructions

Melt the oils and beeswax in a double boiler (pan over a pan of water) on a low heat until the wax is melted. Remove it from the heat and while the mix is still hot add any remaining ingredients such as essential oils or your optional coloring.

Mix all the ingredients together well and while hot pour into suitable pots or containers. Allow to set before use.

Insure all containers are sterile by boiling them to prevent contamination of your lip loss.

If you wish to dye this balm you can use a cosmetic coloring available from homemade body product supply stores. You can also use a small amount of store bought lipstick to tint the balm.

Alternatively you can also use colored beeswax or candle dye as it is being used in such a small quantity it will not stain or harm your skin.

Makes 3-4 small pots of balm.

    I’m going to be using Lip balm tubes.

  2. YUMMO GREAT BALM
