I made this and subsituted the candle wax for beeswax. It came out AMAZING. It tastes like bacon meat, and does not irritate my lips, cause any acne or breakouts or any other adverse effect. Of course this may vary depending on your skin type -I have had my tube for going on 5 weeks and the bacon fat has not turned rancid and the balm is just as good as it was on the day I first made it.



You add in the wax\Vaseline base to the tube first, then fill the rest up with the bacon oil. It does take about a day for the flavor to fully set and develop.



This is an amazing tutorial, so thank you mangoking!! I will be making many presents with it :)
