Notes

  • This recipe makes about 15-20 tubes of lip balm, or 4 (2-ounce) containers of lip balm.
  • HELPFUL TIPS:
  • I love the refreshing scent of mint-flavored lip balms, so I opted to use peppermint essential oil. If you want a bright flavor to perk you up, a citrus flavor (like lemon) would be perfect. Want a nighttime, soothing balm? Lavender essential oil is your best bet!
  • Have all of your supplies set up and ready to go before you start working. You don't want to be messing around looking for anything once you start melting the wax.
  • Work over a towel, paper towels, or old rags. You don't want wax to drip on your nice countertops!
