I asked a lot of people to try my lipbalm, and I think with their feedback and my feedback, the recipe I used is what I was going for when I decided to make lipbalm. However, trying my lip balm a week after made me realize that the lip balm has hardened. For my next test, I will add less beeswax, 0.9g, because I think that could also be making the lip balm harder after a while.
