- ½ Cup shea butter
- 2 Tbsp. apricot kernel oil
- ¹⁄³ Cup bees wax, grated
- 3 Tbsp. almond oil
- 1 tsp. vitamin E oil
- 10 drops Doterra frankincense essential oil FRANKINCENSE ESSENTIAL OIL
- 10 drops Doterra On Guard essential oil ON GUARD ESSENTIAL OIL BLEND

METHOD:
- I use the double boiler method to gently melt the ingredients. Place a small saucepan with a few cm of water on medium heat.
- Put a large glass bowl on the top of the saucepan.
- Add coconut oil, shea butter, apricot kernel oil, bees wax, almond oil and Vitamin E oil in the glass bowl.
- Allow the ingredients to melt slowly and lightly whisk.
- Once they are all melted, remove the bowl from the saucepan.
- Allow to cool slightly and then add the essential oils.
- Pour into lip balm containers that have been place on a baking tray. Allow them to cool and then put them in the fridge to fully set.
- When you feel the little tingle of a cold sore coming, apply the cream to the area 4 times a day.
