Recipe For Radically Healing Lip Balm

Recipe By Herbalist Christine Blume

  • 3/4 cup castor oil
  • 3/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1/2 ounce beeswax
  • 2-3 400mg. vitamin E oil capsules (Pierce them and use contents)
  • 1 Tablespoon Emu oil (optional, but VERY healing)
  • 3 Tablespoons comfrey root
  • 1/4 cup calendula flowers
  • 1-2 teaspoons lip flavor oil 1 teaspoon of orange, lemon, lime, or peppermint essential oil.

Combine 3/4 cup castor oil and 3/4 cup coconut oil. Warm over very low heat to melt. Add 3 Tablespoons comfrey root powder and 1/4 cup calendula petals or flowers. Let this steep for 90 minutes, double boiler style on stove.

Strain through a funnel lined with 2 layers of muslin cloth. Now, measure out 1/2 cup and proceed with the above recipe. Remember you have combined the castor oil and coconut oil already so all you need to add is the beeswax, and 1 Tablespoon Emu oil, vitamin E and lip flavor oil.

Save the leftover infused oil to use for future batches. Rose and coconut lip flavor oils are my favorite. You can email me through my website for those flavors. That email is blumesfarm@mindspring.com
