What Do You Need to Make Lip Balm?
Well, you’ll just need 4 simple ingredients to make your lip balm.
- Coconut Oil
- Beeswax Pellets
- Avocado Oil
- Peppermint Essential Oil
Coconut Oil Lip Balm Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp. Coconut Oil
- 1 1/2 tsp. Beeswax Pellets
- 1 1/2 tsp. Avocado Oil
- 5 drops Peppermint Essential Oil
Coconut Oil
Beeswax Pellets
Peppermint Essential Oil
How to Make Coconut Oil Lip Balm:
- Add your Beeswax Pellets to a microwave-safe glass measuring cup, and microwave for 20 seconds, stir, microwave for 20 more seconds, stir, and microwave for 20 more seconds. If beeswax pellets have finished melting, microwave again in a 20 second burst, and stir. Make sure all pellets have melted completely.
- Then add Coconut Oil to hot liquid beeswax, and stir well until coconut oil has also melted completely.
- Add Avocado Oil and 5 drops Peppermint Essential Oil to mixture, and stir again until all ingredients have combined.
- Now pour your mixture into small cosmetic containers, affix the lids, and place them in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to solidify.
- Be sure to clean your measuring cup right away, to prevent the traces of wax from hardening on.
- After lip balm has been chilling for 10 minutes, remove from the refrigerator, allow to come to room temperature {for about an hour}, and then it will be ready to use!
- The consistency will be somewhat firm, and that’s okay. Just swipe your finger along the top, apply a tiny amount to your lips, rub your lips together, and let the all-natural ingredients do their magic! Just a little bit goes a LONG way… and trust me, this will last you so much longer than store bought lip balms!
- Note: Lip balm can be stored at room temperature.

This sounds amazing! I love how it’s made with natural ingredients. Coconut oil is so amazing and is so versatile! Love this.
Heidi says
Thanks so much, Christie! I agree… coconut oil is incredible, and I just love using it in homemade beauty products. It’s so nice knowing exactly what ingredients are in your products and going on to your skin. 🙂
Jasmyn says
haha! I have those little containers! I went camping in august and put coconut oil in them…lets just say I learned real fast that it was a bad idea. It got over EVERYTHING! 🙂
Heidi says
Yes ~ it melts in the heat, so you’ll definitely want to keep it in cooler conditions. 😉
Juliet DG says
To keep the coconut oil from melting too fast in the heat, use beeswax or a bit of paraffin wax melted in a double boiler and mix with the coconut oil base. Don’t add too much or the lip gloss will be too solidified to use, but adding around 1/4 the amount of the concoction will aid in keeping the gloss in the jar instead of all over your purse or car!! Great site, found on Pintrest. Have a fabulous day!
