Instructions
- In a double boiler, combine all ingredients (except oils if using). Bring to a rolling boil and let simmer for fifteen minutes.
- Stir frequently with a mini whisk until all ingredients are combined. Let boil for another two to three minutes so make sure the beeswax won't leave any chunks.
- Pour the mixture through a small mesh sieve into two small mason jars. If using essential oils, add in the oils and whisk to combine.
- Let sit on the counter for twenty for hours to set.

Notes
- If using an essential oil in place of the zest, add 5-7 drops of each. But make sure not to use this on your face or shoulders and head out into the sun. And like anything else, make sure to use pure essential oils if you want to reap the best benefits.

- This recipe uses a base of coconut oil which means that the lip balm will be softer if stored in warmer temperatures.
- The DIY body butter will last 3-5 months so long as liquid doesn't get into the jar.
