Made up another batch of Lip Balm. Good returns for the amount of bees wax I use.

Id like to know how you do this? as I'm making a list of all things i can do when i get started.

Is it easy to make?

Loads of different recipes.

A good base is coconut oil and beeswax. That in itself is a good balm. Just heat the two to melting point and decant into small containers.

I like to add peppermint, tea tree and eucalyptus to mine once melted and cooling.

Take a look here:http://www.livingonadime.com/homemade-lip-balm-recipe/

I have also 'tweaked' a recipe to give the best results.

I made up a small batch of candy for bee feed.

Must do better ..... Caught some earache about messy working.

Do you have certified assessments for your lip-salve or do you just go for it?
I made some and it went down well with friends and family - but the complexity of the legalities around selling it, put me right off .

Only 'sell' it to friends and family, I agree with you, its costs £150 to have up to 5 products tested I think. So unless you are making and selling vast amounts then its not worth the expense.
