REMEDIES: Antiseptic Balm (CRAFTS, OILS, HERBS, BATH)

[Guest guest]

Antiseptic Balm

 

Use instead of antiseptic ointment, this is far superior!

 

2 ounces Beeswax

3 ounces Sweet Almond Oil

1 ounce Jojoba Oil

20 drops Wheatgerm Oil

20 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.
