Making lipbalm with Burts Bees Apricot Baby Oil??


SoapInTheCity

Recommended Posts

I got this 1 oz bottle of 'Burts baby bee' Apricot Baby Oil. I was wondering if I could make lipbalms with it?

Here are the ingredients in the Apricot Baby Oil. (there is nearly no smell) and it says 98.00% natural.

Ingredients: Apricot Kernel Oil, Grapeseed Oil, Wheatgerm Oil, tocopheryl acetate & tocopherol (vitamin E), rosemary extract, beta-carotene, fragrance.

Any ideas on how to make a lipbalm with it if you think I could give it a go?

I would say no, simply because of the fragrance oil that's listed. Most fragrance oils aren't safe for use in lip balm products.

Apricot Kernel Oil would be good in a lip balm though. Obviously you'll need to balance it out with some kind of wax (beeswax, candellilia, etc), and probably some harder oils.
