Homemade Menthol Vapor Rub
Homemade Menthol Vapor Rub – a playful mix of natural ingredients and essential oils for a soothing sensation that's a treat for your senses!
Ingredients
- 5 TB coconut oil
- 2 TB cocoa butter or shea butter
- 1 1/2 TB beeswax
- 30 drops Eucalyptus essential oil
- 12 drops each: Peppermint and Lavender essential oils
- 5 drops Tea Tree essential oil
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, warm coconut oil and cocoa butter/shea butter over low heat until it melts. Add beeswax and melt.
- Remove pan from heat. Let the mixture sit in the pan for around 5 minutes. This is an important step, as it allows the mixture to cool enough so that the oils will not be destroyed from the intense heat.
- When the 5 minutes are up, add all of the oils to the liquid and combine with a spoon.
- Pour the final mixture into a small, 4 oz - I use jelly jars. Let the mixture cool until it creates a soft, creamy rub!
