Put about an inch of water in the bottom of a small pan and turn on medium heat.
-
Place a small (pint size or smaller) jar in the water, being careful not to get in water inside the jar.
-
Place all ingredients except the essential oils inside the glass jar and slowly melt, making sure not to get any water in jar. I use 2 tablespoons each of the butter(s) and coconut oil and 1 tablespoons of beeswax. This fills about 18 tubes.
-
When all ingredients are melted, stir well and turn off heat, but leave jar in the water to keep warm.
-
Stir in the essential oils.
-
Use a glass dropper to quickly fill the containers. I leave the jar in the water but turn off the heat to keep the ingredients liquid while I do this.
-
The mixture will settle slightly as it cools, so I also re-top the containers after about 2 minutes as they start to harden.
-
Let sit without touching for several hours or until completely hardened.
-
Store in a cool dry place (they will last for at least a year if stored correctly).

10. Enjoy!
