MAKING YOUR OWN HONEY VANILA LIP BALM (CHAPSTICK)

Mix together; 2 TB Petroleum Jelly, (Also known as Vasoline); 1 TB Beeswax, and 1/8 tsp Vitamin E oil, (I used a pin and opened a Vit. E capsule); Place in a microwaveable container. Heat in microwave for 2 1/2 mins. stir and heat again in microwave for 2 1/2 minutes. Stir. The ingredients should be all melted and stirred together. Let this sit for 5 to 10 mins. Then stir in 1 tsp. of vanilla and 1 tsp. of honey. When all stirred together and still warm, pour into the lip balm container you wish to use, (i.e. an empty lip balm / chapstick container; or any other container). They say that this can store up to 6 weeks without refrigeration, however we have used it longer with no ill effects. (You could store it in the refrigerator).
