Making Herbal Salve

Lets make an Herbal Salve


* 1 oz Cocoa Butter or Shea Butter
2 oz of infused oil
2 TBS Beeswax
* Essential Oil of choice
* Vitamin E


Warm 15 second intervals in microwave until Butter and beeswax is melted, stir until completely mixed.
You can also add a drop or 2 of essential oil at this point, mix well then pour mixture into a small, shallow, glass jar and let it cool until solid.

If you find the mixture too soft reheat and add a little more beeswax. If it is too hard reheat it and add a touch more oil.
Be sure to wait until the mixture is completely cool before you put the lid on, then you can label the container.
