Ultra Moisturizing Spearmint-Citrus Lip Balm

This winter I've had seriously dry lips! I went on vacation and FORGOT my lip balm {gasp} and I was seriously in pain from the winter dry lip curse. Horrible!!!

As soon as I got home I made this DIY lip balm recipe which is ultra moisturizing to help relieve dry lips and create a really soothing, nourishing feeling.

Ultra Moisturizing Spearmint-Citrus Lip Balm
This recipe made 15 tubes of lip balm (with lots of spillage) 

• 2 TBSP Organic Virgin Coconut Oil
• 1 TBSP Shea Butter
• 2 1/2 TBSP Beeswax Pellets
• 1 TBSP Avocado Oil (Organic) or Calendula Oil
• 1/4 tsp Vegetable Glycerin
• 5 drops of Vitamin E
• 12 drops of Citrus Fresh Essential Oils (I recommend this brand)
• 8 drops of Spearmint Essential Oil   (I recommend this brand)
• Empty Lip Balm Tubes Containers

Over a double boiler, melt the coconut oil, shea butter and beewax. Once melted, add the avocado oil, vegetable glycerin, and vitamin E. Remove from heat and add the essential oils. Immediately pour into tins or tubes and let set for up to 12 hours.
