    Few drops essential oil of Lemon or orange A delicious protective and healing gloss especially good for chapped lips. Melt the beeswax. Add the apricot and calendula oils, stirring constantly.

    yummy balms...

    i used:
    1 oz beeswax
    2 oz calendula infused olive oil
    3 capsules of natural source vite e (just poke a hole in the capsule and squeeze the e into the melted mixture, near the end so that it doesnt get overheated)

    i put a few drops of peppermint eo in one third, and a few drops of lavender eo in another third, and then left the last third plain. :D
