Get naturally soft lips - Hydrating Lip Balm with fresh beeswax - Easy to make at home!
Do you want to give your lips that nourishing feeling and hydrate them in one go? It is known that beeswax is an important ingredient to lock in water and to protect against dryness and sun. Here I show a very good hydrating lip balm with nourishing honey en softening peppermint made from a beeswax olive oil base. Very effective when lips are dry or hurt...
Fresh Beeswax + honey = lip balm (original picture @beesteem)
Follow this easy recipe and you have plenty of lip balm for your own use, or to give it to friends and family!
I use beeswax and honey from my own bees, so that I now that all active ingredients from the bees are still present. You can also use organic beeswax. or raw honey.
Ingredients:
10 grams of fresh beeswax
3 spoons of Organic Olive Oil
1 teaspoon of raw honey
5 drops of peppermint oil (EXTRA for smell/taste)
How to prepare?
Mix the beeswax and olive oil in a bowl that you heat "au bain Marie" above a saucer of boiling water. The hot water indirectly heats the mass very slowly. Only heat until the beeswax is molten. Stir the honey.
Take the bowl from the heat and add some peppermint oil.
Pour the balm in a little tin or a plastic tube for lip balm. Let it cool.
This balm will be very easy to use and stays well over 3 months!

No.. That looks too good.. How did it taste?
@beesteem
Very gentle I would describe it. The peppermint gives a light flavour
I will show this to my wife. Maybe she can get softer lips :)
It is also nice to make your own cosmetics. You know what is in there, then.
