Hey everyone!

I have some Vit E liquid, and some aloe extract, that I thought might be great additives to lip balm. I think they're both water soluble instead of oil. Is there a way to get it to suspend in the oils? The recipe I'm using for the balms is really simple:

0.5 oz Avocado Oil
0.5 oz Jojoba Oil
1 oz Beeswax
0.5 oz Shea Butter
0.5 oz Cocoa Butter
3% Flavor Oil
(seems to be a really common recipe, lol)

Thank you much!

Vit E should work for your lip balm. Aloe extract would need an emulsifier AND a preservative that's lip safe.
