DIY EOS Lip Balm

This is a quick and easy way to refill your empty EOS container, the best part is that it is your creation so you can alter it to exactly how you want it! You'll need five simple ingredients for this,
beeswax, olive oil, old lipsticks, essential oil and tape. You can use other ingredients for a different smell or flavor than what is added in this blog too. :)

* First make sure the EOS container is clean and the rest of the old lip balm is gone using a toothpick or warm water.
* Place tape on the inside of the lid in the shape of two crosses, much like two crosses overlapping each other. The video below shows exactly how to do this.
* Cut beeswax into small pieces.
* Heat a little water in a pot with a heatproof container in the middle. Put two teaspoons of the beeswax and five teaspoons of olive oil inside the heatproof container.
* Add lipstick when the mixture melts.
* Add essential oil and mix mixture.
* Take mixture of stove.
* Add some of the mixture to the lid.
* Put in the freezer.
* Wait till the rest of the mixture is of a creamy consistency and spread the mixture over the top of the bottom half of the EOS container. Put that in the freezer.
* Wait ten minutes and take both parts out of the freezer.
* Take the top of the EOS container (The one with the tape.) Use the tape and lift the lip balm out.
* Heat the bottom half with a lighter or candle and stick the top half of the balm on.
* Shape and smooth the balm with your finger and put the lid on.

Below is a video from DIYlover on youtube which is very easy and informative.
