Add a couple inches of water to a small saucepan. Add beeswax, olive oil and shea butter to a mason jar or small bowl, and place inside the saucepan, creating a double boiler method. Bring water to a boil, and allow mixture to melt. Remove from heat, and stir in essential oils (optional).

Step 2

Immediately transfer lip butter into small containers or tubes, and transfer to the refrigerator to set for 15 - 30 minutes.
