Out of all the lip balms I make, this one is my wife's favorite!! She absolutely loves this formula!! She says it really lasts soooooo long!!!
Hoooray! I'm so dang thrilled to hear it ❤️ Stay safe out there, Gnome Beard!
@@HumblebeeAndMe can I mix with colour
Thanks for sharing your expertise! I just ordered your book…can’t wait to read it!👏🏼
Omg I just made this and it is BY FAR the best feeling DIY lip balm I’ve made! I’ve tried a bunch of different wax based and lanolin recipes but they always feel so greasy. Thank you for this!
I'm so thrilled to hear it! ❤️
Hi Marie, thanks for all your helpful content. I’ve struggled with this balm as mine felt too waxy (maybe what you describe as grabby but in my tropical climate it’s unpleasant to apply). Shall I use candelilla only (no beeswax) or more candelilla and less beeswax? Shall I swap out castor oil for a lighter oil (like caprylic capric triglyceride)? Any suggestions? I would like it to glide on better (feel slippy) and still be very emollient and moisture retaining for the lips. Thank you.
Thanks for another great formulation! I would like to flavor this with fruit flavors. Could you tell me how many grams of flavor oil to use and also it seems most are not sweetened so I will need to add that as well. How much would you put of each? Thanks 🙂
Waiting for a couple more ingredients and will be making this! Can't wait!! Thank you!
~ Ok, since my last post, I have made a few batches and it is my go to Lip Balm! I have to make at least 10 at a time because my family keeps asking for refills! 😂
Really? So this recipe is really good then. Do they use it fast?
Hi. I wonder if this will also work as an anti-chafing stick base? I couldn't find a recipe/formulation that is non-greasy/oily. Thanks.
I truly appreciate all the other ingredients that you have listed. I am looking for a lip balm that is thicker not greasy, but not too thick, which is what beeswax seems to do to my lip balms I appreciate your suggestions. Thank you.
Hi Marie !!! I make my lip balms using natural waxes and oils however they smell bad after 2 to 4 months even though I put Vit E acetate can you help
I love this recipe, thank you! Do you have any recipes or suggestions on tinted lip balms and lipsticks that don't use titanium dioxide or synthetic pigments? Something just with natural pigments, like maybe cocoa powder? :)
Also, thank you for your videos and knowledge!
Thanks for watching!
Hi I tried this product but my soy lecithin is not completely mixing with the other ingredients I can see small granules in the final product .. any suggestion?
Hi Marie! Any reason why my sunflower lecithin is clumping up during the heated phase and won’t incorporate?
Hii Marie I made a batch yesturday and it turned out amazing. Thank you for the knowledge and guidance. The only problem I faced was that I used soy lecithin which was dark brown in colour (and was extremely sticky) even after melting all the ingredients the lecithin didn't mix up well. I also used a batter blender but it just didn't incorporate. Do let me know how to fix it.😊
I had the same problem. It sits at bottom and does not mix
You have a great website. I found your website researching how to make body butter using steric acid. The ratio 1:6 made the best.
Thank you! Those little experiments aren't terribly sexy, but they sure are darn useful!
hello there! how much emulsifier should I use if I introduce a water to the lip balm recipe. I was also planning on using btsm as the emulsifier.
I'm afraid there isn't a simple answer to this question-you'll have to experiment and see :)
Can this be used as a hand balm too, especially if I infused an oil with herbs?
What is the difference between lip balm and salve recipes?
It can, it's just a matter of whether or not you like the feel of it on your hands-personally I would think this is too sticky/creamy for enjoyable hand use. Please check out all the salve formulations I've shared on Humblebee & Me @ www.humblebeeandme.com :) Happy making!
So, is it possible to burn/caramelize the lethicin , because I’m pretty sure that’s what happened to mine tonight! It was a hard, brown lump at the bottom of my beaker, and no matter how much I stirred it, it never dissolved. I took the beaker out of the water bath and let it cool a bit and then after taking out the burnt lump, stirred 2.5g back in. It is still not really incorporating. I’ve used this sunflower lecithin in other lip balm recipes with no issues. Any ideas?
Hmm. I assume you're using a water bath? Is your lecithin liquid or solid? It definitely does degrade with extended exposure to high heat (learn more here: www.researchgate.net/profile/Cassio_Prinholato_Da_Silva/post/What_is_the_degradation_temperature_of_phosphatidyl_choline_lecithin/attachment/59d61f8e79197b807797dfec/AS%3A285223494406144%401445013988397/download/art%253A10.1007%252FBF02540536.pdf), but if you were using a water bath there's no way you could've got up to the temperatures mentioned in that study.
Wow this is lovely 😍 thank you
Thanks so much for watching! :D
The only thing I don't have Is Soy Lecithin! already ordered some :D, I want to see what you made next, what is the next video?
Thanks!
Is it possible to leave the vitamin E out entirely (with the understanding that oils may go rancid quicker)?
A friend of mine gets hives from continued use of anything containing tocopherol.
Yup! You could also look at a different antioxidant, like rosemary seed extract.
Thanks for always having great content and amazing recipes. I tried making this but used sunflower lecithin, but for some reason I can't get it to dissolve in the oil, have tried more heat and time as well. thanks for your help :)
Try to mix and stir Castor oil and liquid lecithin first , once they get fully mixed, add the rest ingredients then heat them up. It works way better for me.😀
I have been using soy lecithin and having problems having it dissolve too! I’ll try mixing it first with the castor oil thank you!
Heyy , Marie hw are you ?
I hope ur safe & healthy .
Im facing a problem with lecithin ..it just doesnt get dissolved , can you tell how do i get it dissolved ?
I soo want to make this receipe !!
Thank you.
Iam facing the same issue Marie 🙈
The lecithin doesn't get dissolved and also the lecithin (soy lecithin) Iam using is dark brown in colour which changes the colour of the lip balm as well
I really want to make this, but on Lotioncrafter they have Cetearyl Alcohol NF (30/70) and on Amazon they have it at 50/50. Will this make a big difference if I get the 50/50?
I can't say from personal experience; it will make a difference, but whether it will have a large impact on the end product is hard to say.
Hi Marie...I had all but three things...I really wanted to try this...so I made a small order..it came in a few days...IT IS FANTASTIC!!!! I wear it everyday!.. I love this lip balm/ lip stick...I have enough lip balm and lip stick for the rest of my life!!!.....lol....thanks, mary
Woohooo! Thank you so much, Mary-I'm thrilled you're loving it! Be sure to try the tinted follow-up as well if you like a bit of colour ❤️
I did...plumberry---I love it.....thanks mary
Is lecithin usually found in supermarkets? I've never used it.
You might find it at a health food store, but I usually buy it online.
Hi miss bee :) can't Waite to make this ☺. Can I use 8gms of Shea butter instead of wax?
That will create a drastically different end product. You can try it, but you will not get this lip balm :)
Hi Marie, my balm came looks white frost , still work but i wonder if it’s because it’s winter here? Thank you
It's probably because you used more refined ingredients than I did :)
New here ! I was wondering if this recipes avoids the filmy look that most chapsticks leave on your lips?
Hi Patrice! I don't believe it's filmy, but then again, I don't believe I've encountered many (if any) filmy lip balms, so perhaps I am not understanding what you are looking to avoid?
Hi Marie I just wanted to say I love your blog and videos. I've never made any of my own products before and I'm having a problem right now because everything you make looks so great and I don't know when to stop putting things in my shopping cart online. I've managed to purge the list down to under $280 from $400 lol oops
Oh my goodness, I feel you! This is SO easy to do, ha. One of the easiest places to pare down is carrier oils-you generally don't need as many as you think you do. The websites all rhapsodize about how miraculous different carrier oils are, but in many projects you'd be hard pressed to distinguish between safflower oil and canola oil-there's no need to buy both!
Can you please post a video using flavor oil I cannot figure out how to get the smell to come through our how to get the stevia to work
I'm afraid I don't work with flavour oils or the stevia lip sweetener, so I'm probably not the person to ask. Sorry! Your supplier should be able to give you guidance, though.
Marie
I have a few questions please
can I add rose petals to my lotion bar ?
what's the ratio to dilute my essential oil ?
I wanna know how to start my diy . like a starter kit
I don't recommend adding rose petals-they'll be scratchy to the skin.
Every essential oil has a different recommended usage rate; generally speaking 1-2% is ok, but this can vary greatly.
You should sign up for my free DIY for beginners course: www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-beginners-course/ :)
The only wax I currently have is soy. I also do not have lecithin. For these 2 issues, can I simply substitute the 2 waxes mentioned here with my wax and then substitute lecithin with xanthan gum or e-wax? Given any differences between the originals and substitutes, how might I adjust the percentages or weight please?
Have you read the partner blog post with all the details on substitutions? Since you're short on three ingredients I would recommend making a different, simpler recipe that uses ingredients you already have. This one is quite simple & lovely: www.humblebeeandme.com/chocolate-macadamia-nut-vegan-lip-balm/
Yes you can use soy wax, you can substitute lecithin to ewax only if you want to use water based products in the lip balm recipe
Hi marry, can i leave the catearyl alcohol, stearic acid and candelilla wax?
You'll find the answer to your question in the blog post that's linked in the description box below the video ;)
Where do you purchase your white refined beeswax? The last time I purchased white beeswax from Amazon it had a smoky chemical smell. It was organic but it still smelled really awful.
Mine is from TKB Trading!
OMG! I love the way you speak!😁😁😍
Thank you so much!
@@HumblebeeAndMe 😊😊😊
Is the soy lecithin the same as the food grade one? If not where can it be purchased?
Yes, just be sure it's liquid.
What is the role of stearic acid, cetearic alcohol and soy lecithin.. Is it possible to make the lip balm all natural??
Please look them up in my encyclopedia to learn more: www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/. You can also check out the literally dozens of lip balm recipes I've shared over the years if you want something simpler: www.humblebeeandme.com/make-lip-balm/ :)
Can I use xanthan gum in lieu of lecithin? PLEASE RESPOND SOMEONE WHO KNOWS. Thanks in in advance.
No, definitely not. Please read up on both in the Humblebee & Me DIY Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/) to learn more!
Is it possible to use real fruit in lip balms?
Was this lecithin bought in powder form?
No; this is in the blog, too ;)
What is the bees wax please and where can i find it???
You can learn more about ingredients in my encyclopedia, including where to purchase! www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/
Hi! Have you ever come across lip balm sweating?
I love all your videos! 🐝💛
It happens if you mix mineral based or silicon based lipids with plant based ones, or water soluble ingredients without the right emulsifier.
Can you still make a lip balm without the waxes and just stearic acid and ceartyl alcohol?
I find wax to be pretty dang essential to an identifiable "that's lip balm" feel, but you can certainly try it :) I suspect something thickened with just fatty thickeners will end up feeling like you've put body butter on your mouth, but go for it! See wha happens :) Happy making!
What may be substitute for calendula wax?
You'll find the answer to your question in the "Substitutions" section of the partner blog post. It's linked in the description box below the video ;) If you're not sure what that means, read this: www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/whats-the-description-box-on-youtube/.
Happy making!
is there any substitute for the lanolin?
Hey! You'll find the answer to your question + lots of formula-specific and more general information about substitutions and alternative ingredients in both the partner blog post for this formulation (linked in the description box below) and the Humblebee & Me Encyclopedia (www.humblebeeandme.com/diy-encyclopedia/). I'd recommend starting off with the big "Substitutions" list at the end of the partner blog post, but please also take the time to read through the Humblebee & Me Encyclopedia posts for each ingredient as well. There is a TON of information in the encyclopedia to help you understand what an ingredient is, why it's used, the job it's performing in any given formulation, and what ingredient(s) you might be able to use instead.
If, after looking through all of those resources, you still can't assemble a collection of ingredients that will allow you to make some version of the formulation, then I'm afraid that formulation may not be for you. It's an unfortunate reality that not all ingredients are available in all parts of the world. I have shared over 1200 formulations on Humblebee & Me since launching in 2011, so I would recommend looking for something similar that uses ingredients you can get. Please use the main menu on the website (www.humblebeeandme.com/) or search for more general terms (for example, "lip balm" rather than "sticky coconut lip balm") at www.humblebeeandme.com/search/. Good luck & happy making!
what can I use to substitute soy lecithin?
For information on substitutions, scaling, shelf life, links to purchase the ingredients, and more general written information on the recipe, please visit the blog post for this recipe that’s linked in the description box 🙂
Marie.. Help. The wax cools.. Its no color
Hi, love your videos! Can I leave the sunflower lecithin out? Didn’t like the smell and I had lumps on the bottom.
If you want to ditch the lecithin I would recommend a different recipe-this one is very carefully balanced and the lecithin is a key part of the recipe. I have many other options here: www.humblebeeandme.com/make-lip-balm/ :)
Dang...I knew I forgot something at windy point today... oh well it can wait until next month... I did enough damage to my budget today between windy point and ND.... hahaha. I can't wait for the next vid. :)
Ahahahaha, I know the feeling! 😝
You have used yellow soy lecithin. I am getting brown in my country. Can I use brown soy lecithin ? In the comment box somebody is saying it will change the color
Yes, colour is gonna be light brown, not white.
Well i wanna make al your recipes also so i bought almost al the products you use and i purschased 900 EURO
Does this recipe also make your lip balm last where you don’t have to keep applying it over and over again? That’s what I’m looking for
This one is pretty good for that, but this one (www.humblebeeandme.com/sticky-coconut-lip-balm/) is my go-to long lasting lip balm!
You need candedlia (I don’t know how to spell that) wax if you want it to stay longer.
Oh I want mine with a wand. Not possible?
Hi how long is your course and do you use chemicals in any of your recipes or are they 100% natural ?
The course is 6 recipes, and takes about 2 months to get through. Everything is natural, but that doesn't mean chemical free :) www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/is-x-ingredient-a-chemical/
Hey how did you calculate that because this other lady said to make it 100% and it is but how do you know how many grams to use it
I'm not really sure what you're asking, but have you read the partner blog post? It's linked in the description box ;)
Can make it without ceteryl alcohol?
You'll find the answer to your question in the "Substitutions" section of the partner blog post. It's linked in the description box below the video ;) If you're not sure what that means, read this: www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/whats-the-description-box-on-youtube/.

How to make soy lecethin
N the place where I live.. Tge Temperatures goes upto 40 degree.. So will this melt??
I've got an FAQ on this :) www.humblebeeandme.com/faqs/will-this-melt-in-hot-weather/
Great
❤️
I made these, but they're very hard and kinda too waxy. I'm gonna try again with less beeswax.
Will the stearic acid add hardness? I only have the tubes. I prefer them for the sake of hygiene. Since I'm vegan and only have soy wax, will the stearic acid help to firm up the final result enough please? ... Happy for suggestions because this will be my 1st lip balm. I'm thinking about increasing the percentage of the soy wax but am unsure the extent this will be necessary.
You might prefer to start your lip balm journey with a traditional vegan version. Here is a search of her numerous blog vegan lip balm recipes: www.humblebeeandme.com/?s=Vegan+lip+balm&et_pb_searchform_submit=et_search_proccess&et_pb_include_posts=yes&et_pb_include_pages=yes
I agree with Jo-I'd recommend a simpler recipe for your first ever lip balm, especially since you don't have a bunch of the ingredients. This one is also nice: www.humblebeeandme.com/chamomile-citrus-vegan-lip-balm/!
It starts at 2:22
Thank u!
No ad preservatives ?
Please read the blog post :)
First 😍love your videos 👍
Thanks so much for watching!
Why no reply is given when asked that soy lecithin doesn't mix properly with other ingredients. How to fix it dear.
The same is happening for me, mine is clumping to brown chunks in the bottom of my mixture 😢
I get a massive glob of what looks like treacle on my spoon as it cools in the jug 🤷♀️ where am I going wrong?
my best guess (total shot in the dark) is that it sounds like you arent pouring it into containers while it is still hot. otherwise, there are a lot of reasons why it didnt work; need more info.
How many tubes can be filled with the amount you made in this video?
Divide the total weight by 4.5 :)
To the point bby
i dont ha
What’s the logic to use beeswax and candellia in the same recipe? Both of them have the same function. Normally, on recipes the canelila wax relocates the beeswax for the vegan community.
This is from the blog post: Beeswax brings its wonderful tacky hardening to the balm, while candelilla brings a bit of hard, glossy hardness.
Somebody (maybe you?) asked this exact question on the blog and it has been answered-both in the text of the blog, and the comment itself.
Can-de-leeeeeee-lah
This not natural
