This weekend, my father and I made some home-made lip balm. It's really easy to make and make great, personal gifts. We used the really luxurious oil, argan oil, but other oils can work just as good. The argan oil is really good for your skin, so that's why we chose it. You mix the oil with bee wax (1/4 wax to the amount of oil). The easiest way to melt the wax is to put it in a container that you boil in a kettle with water. When the mix is around 60 °C (140°F) you can pour the mix into small containers and let it cool to become solid. If you use more oil, the mix can also be a great body lotion.
Finished result:
6 small containers with fun and personal labels
The finished balm, it smells really nice!
