DIY coconut and passionfruit lip conditioner
During the cooler months the weather can cause all sorts of issues - chapped lips is one of them. For a fun solution, why not make your own lip balm. You can even get the grandkids involved.
While the world is your oyster when it comes to flavours - think vanilla, lemon, coconut or honey, lavender and berry - opt for flavours that you find pleasant.
Our favourite is coconut and passionfruit.
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tbsp passionfruit juice (seeds removed)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp beeswax
How to:
- Using a grater, grate you wax into a glass jug. Add in coconut and sunflower oils.
- On medium high heat, warm a few centimetres of water in a large pot. Pop the glass jug inside - make sure no water gets in. Stir gently until wax and oil melts.
- Removie jug from the heat to cool slightly. Add in your passionfruit.
- Fill your lip balm pots and leave to cool for 12 hours before placing the lid on top.
