Stocking stuffers are all the little gadgets, trinkets and sugar treats… Let me share a great addition to stuff your stockings… a homemade and natural lip balm for cold winters!
Here is one of my favorite recipe:
Coconut lip balm
Coconut oil is excellent as a skin moisturizer and softener. Add some vanilla essential oil for a subtle exotic scent. A simple and fun recipe!
Natural Emulsifier – 40 %
2 tablespoon Beeswax
Oil phase – 60 %
3 tablespoon of Coconut oil
1 tablespoon Castor oil
1 capsule of vitamin e
Essential oils:
Optional 10 drops of vanilla essential oil
Directions:
Melt everything in a double boiler of low heat. Once melted take it off the heat and pour the mixture into lip balm containers before it start to solidifier. If it has already starting to solidify, don’t panic! Put it back into the double boiler for a few seconds until it melts again and poor the rest in the containers.
