Make ur own first aid antiseptic ointment​

First-Aid Antiseptic Ointment​

• 0.5-1 ounce (approx. 1-2 tablespoons) raw beeswax, grated
• 8 ounces (approx. 1 cup) olive, almond, or coconut oil (this is the BEST coconut oil on the planet and it makes the BEST ointments)
• 1/4 teaspoon non-GMO vitamin E oil
• 20 drops tea tree (Melaleuca) essential oil
• 15 drops lavender essential oil
• 10 drops lemon essential oil

For recipes such as these, I only recommend the use of the organic essential oils from Mountain Rose Herbs.

Directions

1. Over very low heat, in a small pot or double boiler, melt oils and beeswax.
2. Remove from heat and add vitamin E oil and essential oils. Stir until well combined.
3. Pour mixture into small sterilized jars (or a mason jar). Allow to cool on counter.
4. Store in a cool, dark place. Use as needed on wounds. Will keep for approximately 5 years.

Notes
-Antiseptic properties of the essential oils include:

• Tea tree oil: antibiotic, anti-fungal, antiviral, antibacterial
• Lavender: analgesic (pain relief), antibiotic, anti-fungal, antiviral, antibacterial
• Lemon: antibiotic, antifungal, antiviral, antibacterial

-For those who do not like the smell of lavender…you may substitute chamomile essential oils for lavender and fir essential oils for lemon.

-I purchase the ingredients used in this recipe from a local health food store. Otherwise, I like to purchase from Mountain Rose Herbs.
