Be sure to mix well as you are adding the oils to the beeswax. This will help to get the oils evenly distributed.

Normally we buy our essential oils from StarWest Botanicals. They offer high-quality essential oils as well as other fine natural products.

You can use tins or jars, whatever works for you or whatever you have on hand. As always, be careful when you handle the hot liquid. It would not do to burn yourself on the very salve you are making to heal yourself.

Larger batches are easy to do as long as you keep the ratios right.

6 parts oil 6 tablespoons

1 part wax 1 tablespoon

Usually, we make a larger batch so we can have one large tin and several smaller ones. There is one large tin on the kitchen table for general family use and the smaller ones are packed into someones book bag or purse. This recipe makes a soft salve so it is not good to keep in the car, as we live in the south.
