The key is an approximate ratio of 3:1 of beeswax to butter/oil so it’s a softer texture. I realize my measurements are a little under 3 to 1 but it will work nicely with this as that’s what I use.

I made a larger amount of this because you could use this as a foot or hand scrub as well as a lip scrub.

*If the honey has crystallized, just warm it on the stove in a small pot because it should be liquid for mixing into the ingredients.

*I used Sheep’s milk yogurt because that’s what I had but you could use a non-dairy alternative like coconut yogurt too.

*These are bleached without chlorine and strong enough to not fall apart when used. Alternatively, you can cut square rags out of old cotton sheets or clothing
**A square food storage container works well
***Distilled water extends the shelf-life. However, if you will use these wipes within 2 weeks, you can use tap water instead
****Dr. Bronners makes this product. While it contains SLS, the form they use is not contaminated with carcinogens and is formulated to be non-irritating to the skin

Note: Vinegar should not be used on stone or granite countertops. Simply omit the vinegar and use diluted Sal Suds and essential oils instead.

Note: Essential oils are strong. Do not use on children under 5. Test patch a small area of skin on your arm and don’t use if there’s a reaction. Thank you to For the Love Of Body for providing this recipe!
