Very nice. If you don’t mind. Would you let us know about making soap also?. You’re very informative and easy to understand. Thank you so much for this. Godbless you more!!! ❤
Thanks! I've thought about making a soap video. It's just that my body product videos received so few views I thought it would be a waste of time. I'll consider it.
Hi Sean. I melt it with water and strain it through a maple syrup filter. That gets it really clean. Then I pour it into silicone ice cube trays so they are in fairly small pieces and store it in a clean container that insects can't get into. Cockroaches love beeswax! If you ever see little dark brown specs on your wax, it's from those guys.
I made it and it’s very good for dry skin , but I would like it a little bit lighter, what should I put less ? Probably 6 g lanolin instead of 8 g ? Please ?
Thank you for the video. I want to start selling lip balm in my fragrance company, Faith Fragrances so of course I turn to UA-cam to learn how. Your video is very easy to understand and doesn't bombard viewers with useless information. I really loved the last part about the bees. Both my husband and I know how essential bees are to the world. I have liked and subscribed your video and can't wait to have the time to watch them all. I've just started my business less than a year ago and have plans to also add beeswax candles along with the soy I already sell. Again, thank you for the education on making lip balm. God Bless you and the bees 😊
Good luck with your business! I have a playlist about running a beekeeping business that might be useful for you as well. ua-cam.com/play/PL0nT3Jw0GdhsaI5eOO7DKVrOZ1OWVdWXN.html Chapstick is a big seller at the honey tables. It has a high price point, is easy to make and doesn't cost too much in materials. Thanks for watching and commenting. I have plans to make some videos on candle making from molds and beeswax soap. Probably later in the summer when there's less beekeeping-related things to talk about :)
Great video.... where do you get your beeswax where you know it is 100% beeswax if you don't have your own cappings to melt? I notice you are using the pellet type beeswax?
@@seanlawless-d3x sorry, I design in Photoshop and InDesign. I do not use word to design. It just doesn't work the way I want it to. Feel free to put a white box over the parts you don't want and add your own text on top.
If you're pouring into those little glass jars, then you don't have to wait at all. If you're letting it cool to 170F so you can add an essential oil, then you can pour it immediately after adding the scent. If you are not adding a scent, then you should wait until it is 160F or cooler. Check the containers you purchased to see if they have any warnings as well.
What if you wanted to have a honey flavored lip balm? Use real honey? Artificial flavoring. Btw, I have watched so many of your videos. I’m so impressed with your knowledge. And! You are beautiful. I’m going to be doing this 100%! I’m in West Tennessee. Today is June 6 2024. Should I wait until next year at this point?
It is great to see that when a person has a passion for something -- they can make it into a career! Way to "bee" your authentic self!!!
Thanks!

Hello. Can I ask, what do you strain your wax through to get it as clean as possible for use in lip balm. Thanks. Sean

How about adding olive oil,have you try it ?
Great video.... where do you get your beeswax where you know it is 100% beeswax if you don't have your own cappings to melt? I notice you are using the pellet type beeswax?
It's my beeswax. I use a cheese grater to shave it so it melts faster.
@@BeekeepingMadeSimple That is brilliant... not sure why I didn't think of that when I am trying to melt my stuff.
Hello I can edit the labels, it only comes in as a PDF. Can I get it on word document for windows 365 please

Thanks. Love your videos. Are the labels you use only available in the us
How long to cool mixture before pouring
