Matcha Green Tea Salve Tutorial

Supplies

• 2-4 salve containers with lids I used two 2-ounce containers
• 2 ounces beeswax pastilles
• 1 teaspoon sweet almond oil
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• ½ teaspoon Matcha green tea powder
• 12 drops frankincense essential oil
• 8 drops geranium essential oil
• 7 drops myrrh essential oil

Tools

• Double Boiler

Instructions

• Place water into the bottom pan of the double boiler, and place on the stove on medium heat. You need to be sure the water will touch the top pan. Measure the beeswax and place into the top pan of your double boiler and heat, stirring regularly until melted.
• The beeswax takes a few minutes to heat up enough to begin melting, and you don’t want to rush this process. Burning it can lead to a mess and a loss of its benefits, so just be patient and let it melt slowly. I keep a set of tools specifically for balm making so that the wax build-up isn’t a big deal and I use a rubber scraper and a spoon. Keep stirring to break up the lumps and help them to melt.
