How to make vegan lip balm

Many people do not realise just how simple it is to make your own lip balm. Sadly, most conventional lip balms are little tubes chock full of petrolchemicals, synthetic frgarances and preservatives. The marketing spiel tells you that it locks in moisture and nourishes. Well we can say for sure that plant oils are much more nourishing than petrol! All you have to do is melt the candelilla wax, shea butter and coconut oil together in a glass jug over a simmering saucepan of water (just you melt chocolate). Take off the heat and mix in a few drops of your favourite delish essential oil like or or . Then pour into our and let cool.
