Step-by-Step Guide:

  1. In a double boiler or a microwave-safe bowl, melt 2 tablespoons of beeswax pellets (or grated beeswax), 2 tablespoons of coconut oil, and 1 tablespoon of shea butter or cocoa butter.

  2. Once the ingredients have melted and combined, remove the mixture from heat.

  3. Add 10-20 drops of your chosen Delune's Pure Essential Oils to the melted mixture. If you're using a blend of oils, divide the total number of drops between them. For example, if you're using two oils, you might add 5-10 drops of each.

  4. Mix the ingredients thoroughly, ensuring the essential oils are evenly distributed throughout the lip balm mixture.

  5. Carefully pour the liquid lip balm into small lip balm containers or tubes, and allow it to cool and harden completely.
