Just wanted to drop a note telling you I made this recipe with a slight tweak. Gave the lip balm out as Christmas gifts. Everyone LOVED the lip balm. You knocked this lip balm out of the park!! Thank you Ellen!

I love that you are willing to share your recipes and tips and tricks! So many people won’t share anything once they sell, but they forget that they too were once learning and wishing people would share with them. I think it’s extremely helpful for people in the artistic & diy community to share their learned knowledge with others as we have all been beginners looking for advice and then in turn we can hopefully be the experts that get to share that advice. It’s all a circle and it moves better when information is shared. Thanks for sharing!

By far I find your videos so easy to follow. I like how you explain what your doing and why. Finding your channel has changed the way I look at people who are just out for themselves, And here you are sharing everything you know... Not everyone is trying to make a living selling DIY products. I am looking for something that will work for me.. I have many allergies and believe me over the counter stuff is my worse nightmare.. May God Bless you always for sharing your recipes with us newbies...

[firdowskruger]

God Bless you, Ellen. You are too kind for sharing your recipe. I can't wait to try it out. Stay safe.

I LOVE THIS! Finally, a practical recipe.

Here's a little tip. Put the same amounts of everything, it balances better. You can also add dried up rose powder (organic/homemade) or beetroot powder (organic/homemade). Rose softens the lips and beetroot reddens them. The dried powder, if made right, shouldn't have any flavor. You should try it :)

Lip balms are so fun to make and so amazing! Once you buy or make handmade ones, you can’t go back!☺️ Your recipe looks awesome!

[americanpatriot_]

As a beginner in the crafts of soap and lip balm making this recipe is amazing everyone enjoys it!! Keep putting more out..

[mariahlvmh]

I was born the same year and my favorite lip balm flavor was the huge bubble gum flavor, I did not eat though, lol! To this day, I have to have something on my lips 24-7! Thank you for your videos, I'm a retired healthcare worker and just starting making soap but want to make lip balms for my grand-babies, the hubs and myself. I have learned so much from you, keep up the good work and God bless :)

[ChiTownChei]

Thank you so much. You explain without being boring and you know exactly when to speed up the video. I'm learning a lot. I sell lip balms and such. My recipes are different but I'd like to try yours out on my family and see what these picky people say. I think they're gonna love it ; - )

You are not joking when you said beeswax is a mess to deal with. My first time making lip balm a year ago looked a little like the I Love Lucy episode where they're on the chocolate assembly line. I had no idea how quickly it was going to set up. It didn't pour like I anticipated. I made a massive mess and wiped my gloved hand covered in lip balm all over my face not thinking. It was a nightmare. Now I can make a batch without a mess but boy that first time was a doozy. Glad no one saw me it would have been hilarious! Thank you again Ellen!

[LisaLee]

Ellen, you are pretty excellent. As a lip balm tray seller, it's glad to see every customer produce lip balms with joy. 😊

[Barbara]

I made this today. I love it!! It made 24 lip balms!

[myattt]

Thank you Ellen. I made these with sweet mint. They came out beautiful!

[buttermilkbaysoap]

I just tried this recipe. I cut the recipe in half and Ellen I can’t THANKYOU enough! I used crafters choice peppermint flavor oil that I had on hand. I gave up on lip balms a few years ago but decided to try it again thanks to your video. Here in the north east the lips get chapped. Love this stuff!!! Smoothing the tops off- great tip🤩

[brendagranados]

Your skin let me tell you so beautiful, smooth. Thank you for doing what you do.

[donnaclark]

I absolutely love how "real" you are! You tried the pipettes and realized it was taking too long. BUT you tried! Thank you for the recipe and the video!

[codybrookehanson]

Those look beautiful ❤️ I just made my lip balms and my recipe is very similar to yours - I think I have the addition of jojoba oil, liquid stevia and stearic acid. Plus for my cocoa balms I added a teensy tiny bit of cocoa powder. I have one with kokum butter instead of cocoa as well as my cocoa butter is very fragrant, the way I like it ☺️

[mikachandra]

This looks like a great recipe and I am excited to try this. Thanks for making this video.
I would humbly suggest that if you plan on giving these to others that you use a clean technique, that is, if you want to use your hands, open up all you ingredient bags first, then put on sterile gloves and just touch the ingredients not the bags with the sterile gloves. You basically nullified all your prior antimicrobial sanitizing by using your bare hands and introduced your skin flora to your balms.
