Homemade Holiday Lip Chap

This Christmas-Scented DIY Lip Balm Contains Festive Food Ingredients

— December 29, 2015 — Art & Design
This DIY lip balm is a festive homemade beauty product that uses some of your favorite holiday food ingredients. From Refinery29, the lip moisturizer is inspired by a sweet and refreshing Christmas treat -- peppermint bark. This is especially timely as colder, dry air often results in chapped lips in need of some serious care.

If you want to try this DIY lip balm, you will only need a few simple ingredients including beeswax, coconut oil, melted cocoa butter and 10 to 20 drops of peppermint oil. The chocolate and peppermint scent is good enough to eat, while you also get a hydrating boost for your smackers. Place the product in a small tin and any extra makes an easy homemade gift.
