DIY Plump Lip Balm

Ingredients

• 0.5 oz (14 g) candelilla wax
• 1 oz (28 g) shea butter
• 1.5 oz (42 g) coconut oil
• About 8–10 drops lime essential oil
• 2-3 drops peppermint essential oil

The resulting balm should be firm enough to hold its shape but still melt smoothly on contact with the lips.

Directions: Melt the candelilla wax, shea butter, and coconut oil gently in a double boiler. Stir until completely melted and uniform. Remove from heat, let it cool slightly, then stir in the lime essential oil. Pour immediately into lip balm tubes or small tins and allow to cool completely before covering.
