 Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup natural beeswax
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp. shea butter
  • 10 drops vitamin E
Yield: Approx. two jars (250-mL each).
1. Fill a pot about one-third full with water and heat to medium-low.
2. Set a standard or large-sized mason jar inside of the pot. This creates a double boiler effect. (You could also just use a double boiler, but beware: my mason jar was impossible to get clean afterwards so I am glad I used something fairly disposable.)
3. Put the beeswax in the jar and heat, stirring often, until it’s melted. This took about ten minutes. (Tip: I used a wooden skewer to stir so I wouldn’t ruin a spoon.)

4. Add the coconut oil, olive oil and shea butter. As you can see, I was pretty loose with my measurements. Heat until melted, stirring often.

5. Remove from heat and add the vitamin E drops. Stir.

6. Pour the mixture into storage containers. I used smaller mason jars.

7. Let it sit for an hour or so until it hardens.
