Pumpkin Spice Lip Balm Recipe
Because pumpkin spice chapstick is always a hit, this year I am making this DIY pumpkin spice lip balm as a gift for family and friends.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Active Time 30 minutes
Cooling Time 2 hours
Total Time 2 hours 45 minutes
Servings 3 ounces
Ingredients
- 1 ounce pumpkin seed oil
- 1 ounce coconut oil
- 0.7 ounces beeswax
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or learn to make your own)
- lip balm tins
Instructions
-
Using a digital kitchen scale, measure pumpkin seed oil, coconut oil, beeswax, and pumpkin pie spice in a glass container. (I used a small mason jar.)
-
Heat on a double boiler until beeswax is melted. (I used a pot of boiling water, then put my sealed mason jar into the water carefully.)
-
CAREFULLY remove from heat.
-
Allow it to cool slightly, stirring occasionally.
-
As the lip balm is cooling, it will begin to harden. You'll want to stir the balm often so that the pumpkin pie spice will fully incorporate. I put my balm in the refrigerator for a minute or two to help speed up this process.
-
When the balm begins to get thick, pour it into molds.
-
Allow to cool fully, then place lids on tins. Store in a cool, dry place until you are ready to use.
