1 part beeswax
1 part cocoa butter/shea butter
2 parts high-quality edible oil
Optional: vitamin E oil as a preservative

56 g beeswax
28 g cocoa butter
28 g shea butter
14 g coconut oil
56 g calendula infused olive oil
56 g chamomile infused avocado oil
14 g vanilla infused sunflower-coconut oil

Instructions
Measure all ingredients and gently melt beeswax and shea butter/cocoa butters and fats in a double boiler over medium heat. Add oils. Stir well and turn off the heat. Carefully pour into empty containers. This must be done quickly before the mixture hardens. If the mixture should harden place measuring cup back into the double boiler water and heat up slowly while stirring the mixture. Cool for an hour until mixture has completely hardened, then cap.
