Serves: 5

3 ounces shea butter
3 ounces coconut oil
3 ounces beeswax pellets
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon orange extract

Place shea butter, coconut oil and beeswax pellets in a heat proof bowl or pyrex measuring cup. Heat either over a double boiler on your stove or in the microwave until all the oils are completely melted. The beeswax will be the most stubborn to melt. In the microwave, heat at 30 second intervals, stirring between each. Once your oils are melted youÕll add in your vanilla extract and orange extract. You can sub vanilla essential oil or any other essential oil that safe for skin, however you may need a smaller amount. Stir these together until the fragrance is completely mixed. The beeswax will start to harden on the side of your container if you get wild with your stirring. Now pour your mixture into your silicon molds. You can either let this set up on the counter or you can put them into the freezer for faster setting. Once cooled pop them out of your mold and either place in a container for keeping or wrap them individually if you plan to gift them. If you live in a warmer climate you may like to store these in your freezer to keep from melting until ready for use.
