Stir with chopstick. Add Vitamin E and Flavor oil and pour into lip balm tubes or jars. Tip: As the lip balm cools in the tubes it may settle and cause a slight dip or hole in the finished product. To alleviate this problem; fill tubes half full and allow to cool for a few minutes before you finish filling them to the top. (keep the mixture warm while you are waiting by placing the glass measuring cup in a bowl filled with very warm water.) (a pan filled with about 1 inch of water on the stovetop works best) It is best NOT to melt in the microwave because the heat can cause the lip balm to become too hard. Yield: Approximately 10 .15 oz lip balm tubes or 6 .25 oz jars.
