Teach Soap

I know that honey cannot be added successfully to lip balm...but wondering if there is a way to make a natural honey lip balm?? I notice on the ingredients list of the Burt's Bees lip balm, they list honey (in addition to flavor). Any ideas?? would powdered honey work?
Thanks!

You could try infusing honey powder in oil or add sterol as an emulsifier so the honey stays in, but I would think if you do that, you would need a preservative.

ok thanks - I will try to infuse my oil...
I did try to put some raw honey in my oils a couple of weeks ago just to see what happened...it crystalized and stayed seperate..I was able to scoop it out and my lip balm turned out nice...but with very little honey scent/flavor. So all was not lost but was just hoping for a way to do it so more of the natural honey came through in the final product.
Thanks for your advice!
