• Amount of beeswax and coconut oil can be adjusted. If you want the balm not very hard, use more amount of coconut oil and if you want it to be harder, increase the amount of beeswax and use less amount of coconut oil.
• While transfering balm into containers or tubes, use a dropper to save it from spilling.
• If you don't have a microwave oven, you can use a double boiler instead. A double boiled can be made as follows:
  • Fill a pan half with water, place on the stove and start heating.
  • When water is boiled, place the bowl of mixture inside.
  • Keep heating it on low flame unless it melts completely.
• While melting the beeswax mixture in oven, do not heat it more than 1 minute. Beeswax is highly inflammable, so heat it not more than one minute.
• Do not cover the mixture bowl while melting as it can affect the texture of the balm.
• Comparing with commercial balm in the markets, you would have to apply your DIY lip balm multiple times a day.
