Top Tip for Kissable Lips
by Diannia
Unlike the skin, lips do not produce any oil, so are prone to becoming dry, sore and chapped when exposed to cold winds, sleet and snow. Protect your lips and keep them kissable by applying a rich, soothing lip balm, which can be made quickly and inexpensively at home.
Here’s how
Ingredients
3 tablespoons of coconut oil
1 tablespoon of olive oil
2 tablespoons of beeswax
4 drops of orange essential oil
Equipment
4 small clean jars
A double boiler (as used to melt chocolate)
Method
- Take the lids off the containers and place nearby
- Place the coconut oil, olive oil and beeswax into to the double boiler
- Turn the heat onto medium and allow the oils and wax to melt completely
- Take off the heat and allow to cool
- Gently stir in the essential oil once cooled
- Pour the mixture into the containers and allow to set
- Put the lids on the containers
- Store out of direct sunlight
Enjoy!
