If you are addicted to lipbalm like me, you may be looking for a more natural way to make your own lipbalm. This recipe will also save you money in the long run. There is an initial expense of purchasing your ingredients but you can make so many tubes one you have these ingredients.
This is also another great recipe to use your essential oils. In this citrus recipe, we used orange and lime but you can customize with any of your favorite essential oils to make this recipe truly your own.
Homemade Honey Citrus Lipbalm
Here’s what you will need:
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Shea Butter
- 1/2 teaspoon Bees wax
- 1/2 teaspoon Honey
- 3 – 5 drops Lime and Orange essential oils

In a small glass container place all ingredients except honey and oils.
Melt in microwave approximately 30 – 45 seconds, or until fully melted. Add honey and essential oils.
Pour in to empty lipbalm tubes.

Enjoy!

I love this recipe! I used decorative pill containers, which worked very well and looked so pretty. Thank you!
How many tubes does this make?
Oh wow. I was totally wondering how you would get these into the tube, hadn’t thought to re-use old empty lipbalm containers! Brilliant! I am going to see if I can get hold of some beeswax and give this a go. You could make it in cute tins too as gifts maybe?
