Essential Oil Solid Perfume Locket

Essential Oil Solid Perfume Locket

Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients:

• 1 Tbs beeswax
• 3 Tbs jojoba oil
• 3–4 drops vitamin E (optional)
• 90–120 drops essential oils
  

Instructions:

1. Pack grated beeswax or beeswax pellets into a Tablespoon-size measuring spoon until it is packed level with the top; then dump the beeswax into a heat-proof glass measuring cup (such as a Pyrex brand measuring cup).
2. Add 3 Tablespoons of jojoba oil to the beeswax.
3. Place the measuring cup in a large sauce pan that is filled with 1″ of hot water.
4. Place the sauce pan and measuring cup on the stove, and turn the burner on low.
5. Stir the mixture in the measuring cup with a Popsicle stick or bamboo skewer every couple of minutes until the beeswax is completely melted (about 15–20 minutes).
6. Turn off the stove, and carefully remove the measuring cup from the pan. Place the measuring cup on a towel on a countertop or table.
7. Stir in the contents of 1 capsule of vitamin E (or 3–4 drops liquid vitamin E).
8. Allow the mixture to cool slightly, and then stir in 90–120 drops of your desired essential oil or blend. Note: You may find it easier to pre-measure the essential oil in another container and add it all at once.
9. Quickly pour the mixture into the lockets. This recipe will fill three or four lockets, depending on size.
10. Allow mixture to cool for several hours before wearing the locket. To use, take a small amount of the solid perfume from the locket with your finger, and place it on the wrists, the neck, or any other location on the skin that is desired.
