Step 1

Add the beeswax, coconut oil and sweet almond oil to your double boiler over medium heat. Stir frequently until melted and well combined. Turn off the heat.

Step 2

Next, add in the essential oils. The frankincense and geranium are both thin oils. You will want to be cautious when adding them, so that you don’t over-pour in any drops. The myrrh on the other hand is the opposite. It is a resin and it is very thick. Stir the oils in well.

Step 3

Next, measure out the Matcha green tea powder and add it to the mixture. Let it melt in for a few seconds and then stir it in slowly. It tends to clump up, so you may need to use the back of a spoon or your scraper to push those clumps up against the side and break them up. Be sure to scrape the sides of the pan and get all of the tea, then stir or whisk until it is well combined and there are no clumps in it.

Step 4

Now you are ready to pour. Fill your containers to just below the top edge. Do not place the lids on just yet.

Step 5

Leave the salve out on the counter to cool fully at room temperature, which will likely take about 30-45 minutes, depending on the size of your containers. You will see the salve go from see-through to solid as it cools. Check the bottom middle of containers to see if it has cooled thoroughly before placing on the lids, because it will build up moisture inside the container if you put them on too early and ruin the salve. Once cool, place on the lids on.
