rose lipbalm


the ingredients are generous gift from ms allen !
it's very fun in making lipbalm;
coz' unlike handmade soap, i don't have to wait for a month to test & feel it.
i can know immediately whether the scent of essential oil is enough or not.

there are still a big bag of plastic tubes and beeswax left,
i can try to make some with lavender, lemon ......next time !

about the packing, hubby eric taught me to use illustrator....
not too difficult, but not too easy tho'......hehe.....
however, the paper type is too thick, i want to get some matted transparent label for decoration...anyone know where can i buy some?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
making 3 tubes:
jojoba oil 8g
beeswax 3-4g
shea butter 2g
vitamin e oil 1 drop

melt them all in waterbath,
then + 7 drops of otto rose essential oil.
