Add the infused tallow, infused olive oil, and beeswax to a heat-safe container. Place the container into a double boiler and heat gently until the beeswax is completely melted. Remove from heat and stir thoroughly. Allow the mixture to cool to approximately 115–120°F (46–49°C). Add the vitamin E oil and essential oils, if using. Stir well to fully incorporate all ingredients. Pour into tins or jars. Allow the salve to cool completely before placing lids on the containers. Store in a cool, dry place. Notes Essential oils are optional. Always use fully dried herbs for oil infusions to reduce the risk of spoilage. The consistency of the finished salve can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the beeswax. More beeswax creates a firmer salve, while less beeswax creates a softer salve. Shelf life will largely depend on the freshness of your oils and herbs. When stored properly, this salve can typically last 6–12 months. Shop my Store: https://godshealinghand.com Follow my Socials!
