To make lip scrub with beeswax mix together some beeswax, Shea Butter, and oils such as JoJoba Oil or Vitamin E essential Oil.

Mix together the beeswax, Shea butter and liquid oils in a microwave safe container and heat until the beeswax has completely melted (doing 30 second increments in the microwave).

Then after all of the oils are in liquid form, stir in your flavoring oil of choice and sweetener. Mix well.

Beeswax is very good for lips.

Beeswax is a great moisturizer for your lips as it contains a natural emulsifier which helps your lips retain moisture.

Using beeswax is a great natural way to help keep your lips moisturized and help prevent dry and chapped lips.

And much like how sunblock protects your skin, beeswax can protect your lips from harmful UV rays.

Beeswax has lubricating, softening activities and reduces trans-epidermal water loss from skin.

This means it helps protect lips from becoming dry or chapped.

Beeswax is also an occlusive, meaning it forms a moisturizing, protective layer on the surface of the lips.

Beeswax is used in many skincare products because it provides protection against irritants while still allowing the skin to breathe.

Research has shown that it acts as a better barrier than mineral products such as petroleum jelly.

Beeswax is a product made from the honeycomb of the honeybee and other bees.

The mixing of pollen oils into honeycomb wax turns the white wax into a yellow or brown color.

Beeswax is used for high cholesterol, pain, fungal skin infections, and other conditions.

Beeswax has been used since prehistory as the first plastic, as a lubricant and waterproofing agent, in lost wax casting of metals and glass, as a polish for wood and leather, for making candles, as an ingredient in cosmetics and as an artistic medium in encaustic painting.

Beeswax is considered nonpoisonous, but it may cause a blockage in the intestines if someone swallows a large amount.

If an ointment is swallowed, the medicine component may also cause side effects or poisoning.

In some literature you'll see that beeswax is poop, and raw honey and beeswax are the two main components of honeycomb.
