Easy DIY Organic Homemade Lip Balm

Things you need

• Coconut Oil
• Olive oil

• Beeswax (buy a bar online and use it for different products)

• A piece of fruit (optional or can be substituted with cocoa powder)
• Essential oils (optional)
• An old lip balm/lip stick container (I reused my old one even though it’s plastic)

 

Instructions

Crush the fruit of your choice or cocoa into powder form.

On a stove, heat a pan of water. In a glass bowl add the beeswax, coconut oil, olive oil and essential oils and place it above the pan.

Gently stir and add the fruit/cocoa powder with the melted oils. Once all the oils and powder have mixed and melted, switch off the stove.

Transfer the liquid into a container of your choice. I could see the mixture solidifying within a few minutes.

You can keep it in the refrigerator for an hour for the mixture to completely solidify. Your lip balm is now ready! Ensure you keep it in a cool and dry place and enjoy!

My lip balm was watermelon flavored and very moisturizing. I never realized making beauty products was so easy. I was very satisfied knowing that what I was using was made from natural products and chemical free. I am not planning on buying a lip balm from a store any time soon!
