DIY Tiger Balm Recipe
Apr
Creating a homemade version of Tiger Balm can offer a natural alternative for pain relief and relaxation.
Using a double boiler, melt the beeswax, menthol, and olive oil until fully melted.
Allow the mixture to cool for 2 minutes, then add your essential oils.
Stir the mixture well then pour into your tin or jar.
Allow the mixture to set and harden completely before using.
Use a small amount for pain where needed.
Tips and Cautions To Read:
IMPORTANT: Do not rub Tiger Balm on open wounds, irritated, sunburned or chapped skin. The menthol can cause further irritation.
Avoid getting this mixture in your eyes or mouth, so be sure to wash your hands after applying. Trust me, you don’t want to accidentally rub your eyes with this still on your hands. I learned that one the hard way!
Use the recommended amount of essential oils in this recipe as they are very potent and can cause burning sensations if used in excess.
