Guest guest Posted February 5, 2001 Report Share Posted February 5, 2001 Awhile ago someone asked about this. I found it at the seedman.com site. Maybe someone else answered this question already, if so, sorry for the repeat posting. Love and Blessings, Vicki Antiseptic Balm ( Use instead of antiseptic ointment, this is far superior! ) Ingredients:2 ounces Beeswax3 ounces Sweet Almond Oil1 ounce Jojoba Oil 20 drops Wheatgerm Oil20 drops Myrrh Essential Oil 20 drops Tea Tree Essential Oil ( Makes enough to fill 4 each 1 ounce salve jars or 1 ounce metal tins )A rule of thumb is 2 parts oil to one part beeswax. Simply heat the Sweet Almond and Jojoba oil in a saucepan and add Beeswax. If you want a thin consistency ( such as a cream or Vaseline ) add only a little bit of Beeswax. Want it thicker like wax? Just add more Beeswax. Allow the base to cool down to see what the consistency is like. If it's too thick, add more Sweet Almond oil and reheat, too thin?, add more Beeswax. As the base is cooling add the essential oils to enhance the healing effect of the balm. These essential oils can be found in our Essential Oil List.After you have added the essential oil and the lip balm is still warm enough to pour, carefully pour it into Salve Jars or Metal Tins, we offer both below.
