What You'll Need

Step-by-Step

  1. Set up a double boiler. Add 2 tbsp Mowrah Butter and 1 tsp Beeswax Pellets to the heatproof bowl. Melt slowly over low heat, stirring occasionally, until fully liquid (about 4-5 minutes).
  2. Remove from heat. Stir in 1 tbsp Sweet Almond Oil until uniform.
  3. Let the mixture cool for 2 minutes (so heat-sensitive vitamin E doesn't degrade), then stir in 3 drops Vitamin-E Oil.
  4. Pour the warm liquid into a clean 30g glass jar. Tap gently on the counter to release air bubbles.
  5. Let set at room temperature for 60 minutes — do not refrigerate during setting (causes uneven texture).
  6. To use: warm a pea-sized amount between fingertips and press gently onto cleansed face before bed. The balm melts into a nourishing oil on contact.
  7. Frequency: Use nightly for very dry skin. 2-3 times a week for normal skin.
  8. Storage: Store at room temperature in a cool dry place. Shelf life: 6 months. Discard if smell changes.

Pro Tips

For dry lips and cuticles too. Use sparingly — a little goes a long way. Shelf life: 6 months.
