Homemade Vaseline & Lanolin Balm Recipe

This recipe is good for very dry, cracked skin on hands, elbows, or heels. 

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon grated beeswax

1 tablespoon Vaseline (petroleum jelly)

1 tablespoon lanolin (anhydrous lanolin is best)

1 teaspoon honey (optional, for extra hydration)

A few drops of essential oil (optional, e.g., lavender for calming, tea tree for its antifungal properties) 

Equipment:

Small, heatproof bowl or glass measuring cup

Pot for a water bath (double boiler)

Wooden spoon or silicone spatula for stirring

Clean container with a lid for storage 

Instructions:

Melt the fats: Place the beeswax, Vaseline, and lanolin in the heatproof bowl.

Heat gently: Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (a double boiler setup) on low heat. Stir occasionally until all ingredients are completely melted and combined into a uniform liquid.

Remove from heat: Once melted, carefully remove the bowl from the heat and let it cool slightly for a few minutes.

Add extras: Stir in the honey and essential oil(s) of your choice. Stir quickly and thoroughly to ensure the honey combines well with the oil base.

Pour and set: Pour the mixture into a clean storage container.

Cool completely: Allow the mixture to cool completely and harden. You can place it in the refrigerator to speed up the process. 

The finished product will be a thick, rich balm or salve. Lanolin and petroleum jelly are both effective occlusive moisturizers that help reduce water loss from the skin, and together they provide powerful hydration and a protective barrier for dry skin.
