Last night I had fun with my soap making/ lip balm order that recently came in.
I am still waiting for some of the packaging to arrive to put these little "healing ointments" in,
but figured I could make lip balms in the mean time!
It was SO fun and easy!
Equal parts shea butter, coconut oil and beeswax melted together (hot water bath-style)
then poured into each lip balm tube.
These are unflavored/ unscented but the coconut oil does give off a slight coconut-fresh aroma!
These aren't just for your lips!
It works great on any dry or cracked skin area. I even put some in my hair to keep the rainy-day frizz down!
I'm excited to be making usable homemade gifts this year.
As the projects continue to be a success I will sell some too as a way of paying for our gifting this year.
