Yield: 20 small wax melts
Cost: $7
Equipment
- Silicone molds
Materials
- ⅓ cup coconut oil refined or unrefined
- ½ teaspoon hibiscus powder
- ¾ cup white beeswax pellets or grated
- 10 drops violet essential oil
- 5 drops hibiscus essential oil
- dried hibiscus and/or violet flowers optional
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over low heat, add the oil and hibiscus powder.
- Gently warm, while stirring, until the oil is a lovely dark pink hue and the powder has dissolved.
- Turn off the heat, then set aside.
- In a double boiler over medium heat, add the beeswax and stir until fully melted.
- Add the hibiscus oil to the melted beeswax, then stir until well incorporated.
- Turn off the heat and then gently mix in the essential oils.
- If using dried flowers for the visual effect, add them to the molds before pouring. Carefully pour the wax melt mixture into silicone molds. I like to use chocolate molds, as they are the perfect size for most wax melt burners.
- Allow the wax melts to cool and set, at least 2 hours before removing them from the molds.
- Store in a cool location for up to one year.
- Enjoy!
