Ingredients

• 1 tsp of Candelilla Wax
• 6 tsp of organic coconut oil
• 2 tsp of organic refined Shea Butter
• 15 drops of peppermint essential oil.

Instructions

• Melt wax, oils and butter in a double boiler on low heat.
• If you do not have a double boiler, simply use an aluminium bowl placed in a pan filled with warm water.
• Once everything has melted, mix well with a spoon.
• Add the essential oils.
• Pour into lip balm containers right away.
• If it has already starting to harden, don’t panic! Put it back into the double boiler for a few seconds until it melts again and pour the rest in the containers.
• Let it cool for one or 2 hours until it has completely solidified.
• Apply on your lips as often as needed!
• The shelf life of this vegan lip balm is about 1 year, depending on the shelf life of the oils and butters you have used. It does not need to be refrigerated.
• Yield: about 1.5 oz (7-8 plastic lip balm containers).
