homemade lip balm

What you need: (for 70 ml)

• 1 Ball Mason Jar | Quilted | 120ml
• 1 Chalkboard Paint Lid (Regular Mouth)
• 20 g beeswax
• 30 g coconut oil
• 20 g shea butter
• 1/2-1 tsp beetroot powder
• 4-5 drops of essential oil

Here's how to do it: Heat the pot with a little water. Now put all the ingredients in your bowl (e.g. made of stainless steel) and let them melt. The ingredients should not boil or bubble. Stir well during this process so that all the ingredients are mixed.

Once all the ingredients have combined, you can remove the bowl from the water bath and add 1 drop of essential oil and the beetroot powder. Stir everything well until the mixture becomes slightly solid again (this happens very quickly). Now pour the lip balm into your Ball Mason jar and let it cool. After a short time, it will be relatively solid.
