DIY Natural Lip Balm
PrintSay goodbye to commercial lip balms and go natural, your lips deserve it! These easy DIY lip balms are not only moisturizing, but healthy for your lips and your wallet!
Note: This recipe makes 3 ounces of lip balm so make sure you have enough containers. This recipe will make 20 lip balm tubes. You can always reduce the batch size by cutting the recipe in half.
Note: Weight amounts carefully. Do not measure melted oil/butter.
Tip: If you want a harder lip balm, add an additional 1/2 ounce of beeswax. For an even softer lip balm, add an additional 1/4 to 1/2 ounce of coconut oil.
This lip balm makes a great gift and can easily be customized by changing the color or the scent by using a variety of mineral makeup and essentials. One suggestion would be to substitute Wild Orange for the Lavendar for a cheerful blend.
