What you will need.

  1. Fill saucepan about a quarter full with water. 
  2. Put beeswax and refined shea butter in mason jar. Create a makeshift double boiler by putting the mason jar in the saucepan with the water.
  3. Turn stovetop on low-medium heat until beeswax and refined shea butter is completely dissolved, stirring occasionally.
  4. Stir in essential oils of your choice.
  5. Carefully pour the mixture into small 2 ounce containers using a funnel. Let set overnight.
