INGREDIENTS:
-100 x g lemon balm/mint
-100 x ml olive oil
-beeswax (ratio 1:3 after double boiling olive oil and herbs)
-10 x drops vitamin e-oil
INSTRUCTIONS ๐ฅฃ๐
– Blend or chop the herbs with oil.
– Add them to a heat-resistant jar and double boil for 2 hours, ensuring it’s simmering, not boiling.
– After that, strain it using muslin and let the liquid rest for a minimum of 4 hours (we let it sit overnight) so the oil separates from the water.
– Once ready, slowly pour it into another jar, being careful not to include the water.
– Grate some beeswax in a 1:3 ratio to the liquid.
– Double boil until the wax melts.
– Let it cool for a few minutes and add the essential oil.
– Mix well and transfer to your chosen container.
– We donโt use essential oils in this recipe, but if you’d like a stronger aroma, you can add a few drops of peppermint essential oil.
