Balsam de buze cu miere si scortisoara / Honey cinnamon lip balm

Balsam de buze cu miere si scortisoara. Pentru hidratarea naturala si parfumata a buzelor am descoperit aceasta reteta de balsam de buze cu miere si scortisoara, miroase super si le lasa moi si catifelate :) Si chiar iti vine sa il mananci pentru ca… miere + scortisoara + musetel = LOVE :)) Ce ziceti, incercati si voi?

Ingrediente:

• 1 lg ceara de albine (6g)
• 1 lgt unt de shea (3g)
• 1 lg unt de cacao (6g)
• 1 lg ulei de cocos (10g)
• 1 lgt miere
• 1/4 lgt scortisoara pudra
• 3 pic ulei esential de musetel

Topim ingredientele solide la Bain Marie: ceara, untul de shea, untul de cacao si uleiul de cocos. Am folosit un mini ibric de silicon pentru topit ciocolata, pe care l-am scufundat intr-un ibric mare in care fierbea apa. Adaugam apoi mierea, scortisoara si uleiul esential si amestecam bine.

Turnam lichidul in recipiente pentru balsam de buze, adica borcanase miiici de sticla (gasiti aici de 10ml sau de 15ml) si le introducem in frigider. 2 recipiente de 15ml ar fi fost perfecte :) Se poate turna si in recipiente speciale pentru balsam de buze gen tub.

Balsamul de buze se va intari foarte repede. Se aplica usor cu degetul pe buze. Uleiul esential de musetel roman (Roman Chamomille) e unul foarte bland si cu proprietati calmante si amelioreaza iritatiile pielii, citit mai multe aici si aveti aici un studiu despre el. Enjoy!

ENGLISH VERSION

For a natural hydration of your lips I discovered this natural DIY lip balm recipe, it smells so great and leaves you lips soft and smoot :) And you just wanna eat it, it smells amazing because… honey + cinnamon + chamomile = LOVE :)) Wanna try it, too?

• 3 drops Roman chamomile essential oil

Melt the solid ingredients over a pot of simmering water: wax, cocoa butter, shea butter and coconut oil. I used a mini silicone pot for melting chocolate and I immersed it in a larger one of boiling water. Add the honey, cinnamon and essential oil stir.
