Organic Lip Balm and Salve Making
Make some yummy lip balms and soothing hand salves for yourself!
Homemade medicinal salves and lip balms are easy and fulfilling to make and the creative possibilities are nearly endless. What gives balms and salves their structure is beeswax. Beeswax is inherently medicinal and, when paired with herbs and quality carrier and essential oils, becomes alchemically healing. In this hands-on class we will create an herbal salve and a honey infused lip balm. We will discuss types of oils, methods of extracting herbs in oils, where to source products for your creations, necessary equipment and methods for creating your own balms and salves. Each participant will go home with recipes, an herbal salve and three yummy lip balms.
