Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon beeswax pellets

- 1 teaspoon honey
- Optional: A few drops of your favorite essential oil for fragrance (e.g., vanilla, mint)
Instructions:
- In a heat-resistant bowl, combine coconut oil, beeswax pellets and sweet almond oil.
- Use a double boiler or microwave in short intervals to melt the ingredients until you achieve a smooth liquid consistency.
