Follow these steps to make this moisturizing coconut vaseline lip balm. Be sure to gift to friends and loved ones.
A lip balm is a substance that is added to the lips to moisturize and relieve chaps and dryness. A lip balm is generally made from a base mostly coconut oil or beeswax, vitamin E capsules for Adee moisturizing effect, a flavour, and a colour. Just like that, you have a go-to for soft and luscious lips!
Now, that you know the basics of the recipe for homemade lip balm, let’s get to something interesting to further educate you.
Essential oils are used mostly in a few drops. Be sure not to overuse because of their potency.
STEP 1: On medium heat, bring a pot of water to a boil.
STEP 2: Insert a glass bowl into this pot. Make sure it doesn’t tilt and fall, you can hold the glass bowl with a tong. It’d only for a minute.
STEP 3: Add in coconut oil and vaseline and allow to melt completely for at least 20-30 seconds.
STEP 4: Add in vanilla and almond oil. You can use shea butter if you want to.
STEP 5: Stir till completely melted and allow to cool down.
STEP 6: Transfer to a container or a tube and set aside for use.
Q: What can I use instead of coconut oil?
A: Shea butter is a good recipe for coconut vaseline lip balm. You can also substitute shea butter for coconut oil if you have it in-store.
Q: I don’t have beeswax, what do I use?
A: Relax! You can go ahead and make your homemade coconut vaseline lips balm without having to use beeswax. Beeswax is like a solidifier so you can go ahead to use coconut oil, shea butter, or castor oil as the base.
Q: Can I use a container instead of a tube?
A: As I said above, you can use a container or you use a tube lying around in the house. This is used as storage and anything you have available can be used. Make sure it has a cover so as to prevent contamination such as dust and dirt.
Q: How long will my homemade coconut vaseline lip balm last?
A: Your homemade coconut vaseline lip balm should last up to 2-3 months depending on the quantity you make and on your daily usage.
Q: Does vaseline lip balm lighten my lips?
A: This lip balm does not lighten lips but helps in moisturizing. If you want lighter lips, you could use lemon or lemon oil. Lemon has been proven to be effective in lightening the lips and of course, the skin.
Another option is to scrub your lips at least once.
Q: How long does it take to solidify?
A: This should take at least 15 minutes to harden in the container or of course, tube.
Store in a cool dry place, this helps in solidifying it. You can also refrigerate it for an hour or two to speed the solidification process but after that, do not refrigerate as this could lose its form and potential.
This coconut vaseline lip balm is easy, affordable to make. Let me know in the comments when you try it!
