Nature is medicine

All-Natural Lemon Lip Balm

Ingredients:

  • Beeswax pellets, 1 tablespoon
  • Shea butter, 1 tablespoon
  • Coconut oil, 1 tablespoon
  • Lemon essential oil, 10-15 drops
  • Lip balm tubes or small containers

Instructions:

  1. In a small double boiler, melt the beeswax, shea butter, and coconut oil over low heat until completely melted and combined.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon essential oil.
  3. Pour the mixture into lip balm tubes or small containers.
  4. Allow the lip balm to cool and harden slightly, but not completely, before gently stirring or blending to create a soft and smooth texture. You can use a small mixer, blender, or whisk to achieve this.
  5. Once the mixture has reached your desired texture, allow it to cool and harden completely before using.
  6. Cap the tubes or containers and store in a cool, dry place.

Nic Tip: To give this lip balm a refreshing twist, you can add 1-2 drops of peppermint essential oil to the mixture. Adjust the amount of essential oil to your liking, and feel free to experiment with other natural flavorings and scents.
