Add the coconut oil, olive oil and beeswax to a quart mason jar

Fill a large saucepan halfway with warm water. Put on low to medium heat and slowly melt the ingredients.

While melting and stirring, line up your 4 oz glass jam jars. To each 4 oz jam jar add the essential oils and vitamin E oil in the amounts provided above.

Fill each jar with the melted mixture.

Let the jars cool until the salve hardens.

Note: This salve has a shelf life of approximately one year, depending on humidity. The consistency should be soft but solid enough not to splash around the jar.
