  • 1/4 standard stick of beeswax,
  • 75 g butter,
  • 40 g almond oil,
  • 3 drops essential oil (optional).

Heat the wax in a water bath and mix thoroughly until a homogeneous mass is obtained.

Now you need to add butter and mix again.

Remove the container with the future balm from the water bath and pour almond and essential oils into it.

All that remains is to mix the mixture, pour it into pre-prepared containers, close it tightly and put it in the refrigerator. Leave the lip product in the cold until it hardens completely – this will take about two hours.
