Can these oils be used for lip balm?

Yes but I would go easy cause they are very potent & may say to not ingest them. Check it out first. They're wonderful for lotions, soaps, etc too.

I used it for lip balm, but I believe it is often used in Luton as well. My mom is a massage therapist and told me you have to be careful with cocoa butter because it can stain clothing, so you might want to research that more before using it in a lotion.

Absolutely! The oils are pure and strong! A little dab will do ya! The smell can be so strong it can make you ill!

I don't think so... however I use a lot of other oils that are not harmful like lavender, rosemary, rose, peppermint etc

I don't believe you can use fragrance oils only essential oils. Fragrance oils will clog the device along with citrus essential oils.

The oils are not regulated by the FDA and I personally would not ingest them. They are wonderful for topical use or to diffuse.

I have read that any basic oil would work but the fragrance additives etc. I would be more trusting of using mineral oil. I have used olive oil in the past as well but more expensive than mineral oil.

Hi Mommajoe, Here is one I like to make. It works well for me and I love the addition of the vitamin e. To make a honey orange flavored lip balm, you will need: 2 tablespoons coconut oil 1 tablespoon beeswax pellets tablespoon raw honey 10 drops orange essential oil 2-3 drops vitamin E oil Place the coconut oil and beeswax in a glass measuring cup. Place the measuring cup inside a small saucepan filled with about one inch of water to create a double boiler. Melt over low heat, stirring frequently. Once the coconut oil and beeswax is melted, add your honey and essential oil. Stir well. Carefully pour the mixture into the containers of your choice. If you don't want to purchase cosmetic containers, you can use recycled candy tins or plastic Easter eggs. Plastic Easter eggs give you a lip balm that is reminiscent of the eos brand lip balm spheres. Use an old egg carton to keep the containers level for filling. After about 20 minutes, your lip balm should be ready to use. If you're feeling creative, try swapping lemon essential oil, vanilla essential oil, or cinnamon essential oil for the orange essential oil. A pinch of dark unsweetened cocoa will give you a honey chocolate lip balm with a slight tint. To make an unflavored lip balm, leave out the honey and sweet orange essential oil. This recipe should make three to four lip balms, depending upon the size of your containers. Your lip balm will keep for six to eight months. If you want to make a lip balm that lasts longer, add a few drops of vitamin E oil to the mixture before pouring it into your containers. In addition to being a great moisturizer, Vitamin E oil is a natural preservative.

I never thought of that. You can use it on your eyelids so I don't see why you couldn't use it on your lips. I'll have to try that myself!

I would say no. These (wonderful) oils are already in a carrier oil, and so are not just pure essential oils.

I would say no because the consistency of the oil is very light and it may not mix thoroughly with the wax. But that's just my opinion, I have not made candles with theses oils. Perhaps buy 1 bottle and try?

Definitely yes! Jojob is one of a few carrier oils that work well for beard oil. I use this to make beard oil for my business.

Yes, you can. The smell is very pleasant to most, and some people use this oil for perfume, but some think it has a mustier smell than rose oil (which is much more expensive).

I used them for lip balm, but they never leaked and have worked very well. I don't see why they wouldn't work for solid perfume.

Yes, these would be great! I bought mine for essential oil blends. They're great!

Yes you can but the Peppermint oils is a very strong oil so start only at one or two drops.

Yes. There are several recipes you can try. I would Google Vegan lip balm. And be sure to follow it carefully. Good luck!!!
