Coffee Lip Balm

This recipe made 5 lip balms.

Add your ground coffee to a clean, dry glass jar. Pour the carrier oil over the coffee until it’s fully covered. Stir gently to combine. Let sit for a few weeks, then strain the oil through a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer to remove all coffee grounds. Alternatively, you can put in a double boiler for a few hours as well.
In a double boiler, combine the coffee-infused oil, cocoa butter, and beeswax. Stir occasionally until fully melted and smooth.
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool for about a minute so it’s warm but not hot.
Add the vanilla and coffee essential oils until evenly blended.
Pour into lip balm tubes or small tins. Allow to cool completely until firm.

Any carrier oil works. I used almond oil. You can use shea butter instead of cocoa butter.
