PEPPERMINT + LAVENDER HEADACHE BALM

2 T beeswax
1/4 oil


The basic ratio of oil to beeswax I used was 2 tablespoons of beeswax for each 1/4 cup of oil. More oil will make a creamier balm, while more beeswax will make it more solid. So if you find the consistency isn’t right for you, you can melt it down again and add more oil or beeswax.  Combine the oil and beeswax either in a saucepan or use a metal bowl as a makeshift double broiler. Either way, I would highly recommend picking one pan or bowl and designating it for this sort of purpose. You don’t want to eat beeswax remnants the next time you make soup.  Melt the oil and beeswax together over low heat. When the beeswax is melted, pour into a clean jar or container. Add a few drops of essential oil if you want a stronger scent. Let salve cool and harden
