Don't let that burr comb, honey cappings, and wax foundation go to waste! In this video I'll show you how to make lip balm with your beeswax and 2 other simple ingredients.
Recipe:
- 1 ounce beeswax
- 5 ounces oil
- 5 drops of Vitamin E
- 1 Teaspoon of Turmeric Powder
- Pinch of Annatto Seed Powder
After using these myself (I don't sell these), I probably won't use the turmeric (at least not more than a pinch) for future batches. I didn't notice any taste, but one container did leave a little yellowing on the skin near my lips. It must have been from the bottom of the batch and possibly had extra in it, but I certainly wouldn't want to give those to people and have that happen. Something to be aware of if you're following this video! :)

Just for some clarification, I do not sell these lip balms and therefore did not make them in a more sanitary environment (i.e. no kitty). These were for my personal use :)

Sorry but with the Turmeric this will taste really bad and stain your lips and teeth. My recipe is 3.5 grams sweet almond oil, 2 grams unprocessed beaswax and 2 grams coconut oil. I like this one because it is really hard so it doesnt melt or break and it builds a long lasting proctective layer.

If you leave your Pyrex cup handle outside of the pot the handle stays cool enough to pick up directly.
I mold my wax into silicone ice cube trays when I'm done cleaning my cappings. They are 1/2 oz. bars and easy to handle for recipes.
Just starting and ready to do my first honey harvest and this was on my list to make after processing the honey. Great video. Thanks
Not everyone has fancy tools. This is perfect for beginners. Thank you 🙏🏼
Super helpful- thank you! I'm in my second year of natural beekeeping. Now that the initial overwhelm of year 1 is done, I'm looking forward to making the most of my comb!!
suggestion: once melted, take the whole double boiler to your hot pad. leave your wax mixture sitting in that pot. You won't need to remelt it in the midst of portioning.
Thanks for sharing yr video n recipe, love it n Have a great weekend!
Thank you for your video. I just made lip balm using your recipe. They came out great.
Thank you for sharing and making this great video!
Thanks for sharing. Watching from the Phils. 🙏👍♥️
Awesome! You give me hope
awesome videos. thanks for the info!
Thanks for sharing. Some tips, though I'm sure you already know. They make trays for filling the tube that make a lot easier. Also they have yellow bees wax, not sure how yellow you waned it but ya they already have some yellow on them which is how they come out naturally. They process them to be able to make it white.
You did great!
Thanks for allowing us to see how you make these. I would put an elastic band around all the tubes to fill them. Also just pour from the measuring cup into the plastic tubs. Make sure you rub all the water off of the measuring cup first. These may last only 6 months after you make them, unless you refrigerate them. I prefer to make just a few tubes at a time. :)

Why would they only last for 6 months? I thought wax never got old just like honey.
If you put the annatto and turmeric in the oil color the wax, don't pour off the solids, you won't have that problem. I use mineral oil from the drugstore. One pound beeswax to one pint mineral oil. Great for my Working Hands that crack in winter time you dry out. Works as a lip balm. Wooden handles on kitchen utensils. On my carbon steel kitchen knives so they don't rust. As I said before leather waterproofing. In the shelf life of mineral oil is longer doesn't go Rancid. Thank you for your video. Have a great year!

Can I use beet powder for the color in the lip balm beewax? Or anything else to preventing for making your lip more dryer after using, like Burt's bees does.
this lovely amish couple i know sells bees wax for a dollar an ounce ill have to buy some and make this!

Such a beautiful colour 🥰🥰
This also works is it good leather waterproofing. I use it on my work boots winter time.

Wow with turmeric powder??? Very beautiful.

7 ounces for the containers sounds like a lot(200 ml).I am wondering whether the turmeric would stain clothing if the balm got into contact with it?
You can also use aluminium foil on the table, that way if you spoil any wax you can peel it off when it cooled down and recycle the wax
Nice job. Very pretty. I'm guessing you love the color yellow? Just a suggestion,put your products already in pyrex cup to be melted directly in pan then carefully add water to level required might be less back n forth guess work. (BTW,As 8oz = 1 cup,Im thinking you didn't mean to say the lip pots were 7oz.) Best wishes!
Awesome So nice

Sister you were worrying me with that knife. Suggestion. Put your wax in the freezer, then take outside and hit with a hammer. No risk of cutting yourself, or buy you a small mold of some sorts and mold your wax in smaller proportions. Hugs!

how many of the little round containers will this recipe make?
Just to help you, your jug should not touch the bottom of your pot. Preferably use a bowl over the pot - the water should not touch the bottom of the bowl either. However, you could, if you prefer to use your jug to contain the ingredients, then place the jug into the bowl Hope that helps.

Just be aware of nut allergies if you uses any nut oils or nut derived scents, when you are making these to give away to friends - always ask them first. If you are going make these for sale, it all starts getting rather complicated.

Great video...I just heard sniffing so I would definitely have on a mask and gloves...or just make enough for 1 so that the viewer's don't get the wrong impression.... your going to sell those. Also Don't over warm the oil.... your breaking down the ingredients and vitamin E! Just keep warm water... from the pan to the side or turn off the stove.. the water should still be warm!
Can you put aloe Vera on the mixs ?
@celinee.9562

I would say no, because i am assuming aloe vera gel needs refrigeration, this lip balm here is made with long term storage ingredients that last long without wasting even in extreme climates. I believe the qualifiés of the aloe vera are not intact when cooked ! Normally the gel is applied raw. Also i don't think it would mix well because wax and oils are lipidophiles/hydrophobes substances, and aloe vera is a gel that contains a lot of 'water' (the aloe vera juice). Aloe vera is the opposite : hydrophile/lipidophobe. It's most probably possible to add aloe vera to soap and creams because they are emulsions of both water and oils. Here it's not an emulsion. Chemically those natural substances (aqueous and wax/oil) would need to be whipped so as to form an émulsion, so that they can form something homegenous. But i can't see who could want to whip bees wax ! This substance is difficult to manage when it cools down.... Very messy and not efficient. I wouldn't even try. Something i would like to add to this balm is.... Honey ! Honey smells good and is good for the skin as well !!! Good luck in your d.i.y. adventures !

I'm very pale (Irish) but my lips are naturally dark. I am happy to see your dark lip balm because I don't want a heavy lipstick, but I use lip gloss all day. The dark one will make my skin look fresher through the day, I think. Thank you for those ingredients! And I do make my own lip gloss/chapstick for my whole family.
But why is it cool on your lips

It's not actually an essential oil, but it's a really wonderful ingredient to use in lip balms because it extends the shelf life of the other oils in it, by slowing down the oxidation process, & it's really soothing to the skin.

So, can the balm be made with just the wax and the oil, or do you need the "powders" to help achieve the correct consistency?

Vegetable oil turns rancid so don’t use that and lip balms. I cannot imagine turmeric powder in my lip balm. Ick.
