    Melt 1 tsp. shredded beeswax, 2 tsp. coconut oil, 1/2 tsp. lanolin and one vitamin E capsule in the microwave.

    Add 2 drops of essential oil such as peppermint, orange or lemon.

  3. Step 3

    Add 1 tsp. honey.

  4. Step 4

    Stir the mixture until cool.

  5. Step 5

    Pour into a container and let set until completely cool.
