Cocoa Butter Honey Lip Balm

Cocoa Butter Honey Lip Balm


Here's a quick rainy day project! DIY Lip Balm. This recipe is much like the other lip balms posted but uses olive oil and cocoa butter, which are both great moisturizers.

What you'll need:
2 tbls. olive oil
1/2 tsp. honey
3/4 tsp. beeswax — grated
1/2 tsp. pure cocoa butter
Essential oil of your choice (optional, mostly for scent purposes)
2-3 drops Vitamin E Moisturizer


Directions:
1. In a double boiler setup melt the  honey, olive oil, beeswax, and cocoa butter.
2. After the mixture is melted remove from heat and let cool for up to 3 minutes.
3. Stir in Vitamin E. Then, pour mixtures into lip balm containers.






This recipe is modified from one off of the daily green.
