This body balm is perfect for soothing dry winter skin.
Ingredients
  • 3 oz Candellila Wax
  • 4 oz Meadowfoam
  • 4 oz Olive Oil
  • 5 oz Avocado Butter
  • 1 oz Dulse Extract
  • .3 oz Butter Mints Fragrance Oil
  • 4 Small Bail Jars
  • Super Cute Labels
Instructions
  1. Combine the Candellila Wax, Meadowfoam and Olive Oil in a heat safe container. Put it in the microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds then take it out and stir with a spoon. Repeat 2 more times until the wax is fully melted.
  2. Stir in the avocado butter until fully incorporated. Some butters can get grainy if heated to high temperatures so I’ve just gotten used to always stirring in the butters. If it starts to cool down too quickly, pop it back into the microwave for 20 seconds until it’s back to a translucent liquid.
  3. Mix in the fragrance oil and Dulse Extract. Give it a good stir and it’s ready to pour into the bail jars.
  4. A little divot can form in the center as the balm cools. To achieve a nice smooth top, gently heat the surface with a heat gun so some of the melted balm fills in any cracks.
