How to make DIY CBD salve

Ingredients

¼ cup beeswax pellets
½ cup coconut oil
½ cup shea butter
1 teaspoon vitamin E oil
1–2 droppers of Cool Mint CBD

YL tip: We used Cool Mint CBD for the sweet, fresh, universally appealing scents of Peppermint and Spearmint, but you can swap in other CBD products like Cinnamon CBD Oil or Citrus CBD Oil. You could also make three batches to try the whole bunch!

Instructions

1. Combine beeswax, coconut oil, and shea butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently until melted.

2. Put the melted mixture in the fridge for 5–10 minutes until the top just begins to solidify.

3. Take out of the fridge. Whip the mix with a whisk or electric mixer until it starts to fluff up.

4. Add vitamin E oil and CBD. Mix well.

5. Transfer to a jar with a tight lid. Store in a cool, dark place.

How to use DIY CBD salve

When you’re ready for silky smooth skin, rub your CBD balm into hands throughout the day, especially after washing your hands.

Where else can you store your salve?

  • Leave it on the kitchen counter to use after washing dishes.
  • Stow a bit in your bathroom for some post-shower self-care.
  • Put the jar in your bag to take with you throughout the day.
  • Keep some on your nightstand so the oils can soak into your skin all night long.
  • Store some in your desk drawer for mid-meeting moisturizing help.

Dry skin plaguing more than your hands?

  • Use as a cuticle oil while you’re grooming.
  • Apply liberally to feet and put on socks before bed.
  • Rub into dry cheeks or skin patches.
  • Concentrate on dry spots like elbows, knees, and shoulders.
