This salve is easy to make, has all natural, food grade ingredients, and will moisturize and seal in moisture for the most chaffed or dry skin. It also helps skin conditions like eczema. I made a batch for my family and you can too. You can use this as a chapstick, face or hand cream, hair mask to rinse out, or as a normal lotion.
Supplies:
1 Pot
1 Mason Jar (don't bother cleaning the boiled beeswax, this will be your designated beeswax jar to store with soap, salve, and lotion supplies.
Stainless steel fork
Large Stainless Steel Spoons
Glass Measuring Cup
Ball Mason Jars Small

This will make 3-4 small jars, which is a big batch...
Instructions:
Place 2-3 inches of water in a small pot. Place a clean, mason mar inside, with poured beeswax pellets in the jar, About 1 cup. with heat on high. No lid on jar. Boiling water will broil and melt the pellets as you occasionally stir. It takes a bit.
Melt coconut oil (3-4 cups) to a liquid.
Add in 3-4 whole droppers of marula oil to liquid coconut oil as it cools.
Once beeswax is liquid, pour 1 part beeswax to 3 parts of your oil mixture in the clean, small mason jars. Stir. Add lids. This will harden over a few hours.
The salve is finished.
