Main Ingredients
- 1 oz beeswax Use natural, organic beeswax for best results.
- 2 oz infused oil (such as calendula oil) You can substitute with other herbal oils.

Preparation
- In a double boiler, melt the beeswax until it is fully liquefied. Make sure to stir gently.
- Once the beeswax is melted, add the infused calendula oil. Stir well to combine both ingredients.
- If you want your lip balm to have a scent, add essential oils at this point. Also, if you prefer a sweeter taste, mix in honey. Stir the mixture well.
- Carefully pour the mixture into lip balm containers or tubes. Make sure to work quickly as the mixture may begin to solidify.
- Set the containers aside and let them cool completely before use. This should take about 30 minutes.
Notes
Be precise with your measurements to ensure the right consistency. Avoid overheating the beeswax, as it can lose its benefits. Use clean tools to prevent contamination.
