Home lip balm with cocoa butter

We will not get tired to repeat that oral as well as skin in winter, need special care and attention.
The feeling that we forgot to put lip balm when you go out the same as to feel our fingers froze and redness, while looking through the gloves handbag.
Just put a lip balm in the pocket of his coat to give you a hand whenever you need. If you change your clothes highlight each day, insert one in the bag for sure, but not its bottom
To hydrate, nourish and protect lips in the home most often recommend natural, organic products such as coconut, cocoa, olive oil and beeswax.
Cocoa butter contains essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, and beeswax is one of the magical ingredients of most cosmetics.
You will find them in herbal pharmacies or organic stores. It is useful to have a little of each, as always are used in any home recipes for beauty - not only for skin but for your hair.
We suggest you try a very easy and quick way to make lip balm with a scent of chocolate, which also can store for longer.
Prepare equal parts beeswax, coconut oil and cocoa butter, and a few drops of essential oil such as mint. (Prior to test for compatibility of the skin, not to get a side effect).
All ingredients should be heated slightly in a water bath or a few seconds in the microwave - the goal is to blend well.
Then pour the mixture into a glass jar with a cap or other suitable receptacle for the storage.
