Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon Beeswax Pellets
  • 1 Tablespoon Solid Coconut Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Jojoba Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Shea Butter
  • 1/8 teaspoon Mica Powder

Instructions

  1. Set-up your station

    Make sure all your equipment is clean and dry. Open 10 lip balm containers and arrange tubes on a small paper plate. I also use these 3 ounce round containers for extra lip balm mixture that won’t completely fill a tube.

  2. Combine ingredients

    In a small fry pan over low to medium heat melt together the beeswax, solid coconut oil, jojoba oil and shea butter.

    Remove from heat and add mica powder.

  3. Add Mica Powder

    Add 1/8th teaspoon of your favorite color mica powder to the melted ingredients and stir using a wooden stick until well combined.

  4. Fill lip balm containers

    Using a glass dropper, fill each lip balm container as full as you can without overflowing (if the mixture begins to thicken reheat and continue filling containers).

    The lip balm will shrink as it cools and may leave a hole down the middle so don’t panic if that happens.

    Allow tubes to rest for 5 minutes before handling.

  5. Apply lazer labels and enjoy! Be sure to get the free template to print your labels. We also use waterproof labels. Note: Trimming of labels may be necessary.
