Natural beeswax is a useful and fragrant gift from nature with rich emollient and protective properties which makes it a widely used ingredient for natural cosmetics. About 150,000 bees are required to consume 5 kilos of honey, from which less than a kilo of beeswax is produced. Beeswax is hypo-allergenic, great for people with allergies or other sensitivities and a pleasure to touch, smell and work with.

Lip Balm Recipe

You will need:-
2 tbsp Beeswax granules
3 tbsp of Jojoba Oil

3 tbsp of Camellia Oil
2 tsps honey
1drop of Spearmint essential oil
1drop of Mandarin essential oil
1ml Vitamin E Oil

Method:-
In a small saucepan or double bain-marie melt together the beeswax and the carrier oils. Once it is melted, remove from heat, add the honey, and continue mixing until the beeswax and the oil are well blended. Stir continuously and let the mixture cool down a little bit before adding the essential oils and the Vitamin E. Make sure to let the mixture cool completely before covering the containers. Label your small containers for easy identification.

Rich Hand Cream

You will need:-
2 cupfuls of fresh, scented rose petals
50ml (2fl oz) Sweet Almond Oil
5g (1/4oz) Beeswax
1 teaspoon Vitamin E Oil
5 drops Rose essential oil (or use Patchouli for a less expensive option)
5 drops of Palmarosa essential oil
5 drops of Geranium essential oil

Method:-
Pack the rose petals in a wide-necked glass jar and cover with Sweet Almond Oil. Bruise the petals with a spoon in the jar and seal the jar. Place on a windowsill and after 3 weeks, strain off the rose-infused oil. Heat the Beeswax in the Sweet Almond Oil in the top of a bain-marie until melted. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly before adding the Vitamin E Oil and essential oils. Cool for a further 1-2 minutes then pour into a sterilised glass jar to set thoroughly. The mixture will harden, but it emulsifies when you touch it. Note: Vitamin E acts as a natural preservative; you don't need to keep this refrigerated but you should use within 6 weeks.
