Weighing Waxes
Weigh everything into a microwave safe container. Heat gently until liquid. If the wax is slow to melt, remove the container from the microwave and stir.
Weighing Conditioning Emulsifier
This often allows the surrounding oils to melt the wax. When the mixture is completely melted, add the flavor oil. Mix well.
Weighing Castor Oil
From here, you can either pipette the mixture into your tubes or you can use a filling tray. I like using a filling tray because they are simple and fast. If you are using a filling tray, insert your tubes into your tray. Flood the tray with your melted lip balm. Allow the mixture to cool. Scrape off the excess.
Weighing Coffee Butter
I like to use a plastic putty knife. Remove the tubes from the tray and cap.
Weighing High Melt Point Shea Butter
If you are going to pipette the lip balm into the tubes, fill the tube until you get a dome of liquid material at the top. Wax shrinks when it cools and doing this helps insure that you get a very pretty top. Fill all of your tubes making sure they are domed on the top before they cool.
Heated Lip Balm
You may need to reheat your container of lip balm during this process. This is normal and to be expected. Allow the tubes to cool and cap.
Adding Caramel Toffee Flavor Oil
Now you can give your lip balm an elegant label or put it into a cute bag. Enjoy this great lip balm or give as gifts!
