How to make your own scent balm

In less than 10 minutes, you'll have an all-natural, fresh, sexy scent

Here’s your text cleaned up into a short recipe-style article, with the ingredients clearly broken out and the voice kept intact:

Do you want to smell delicious but don’t know how to DIY that? I can fix that.

Let’s make our own scent balm! Here’s what you need to get started:

Ingredients

• 2½ tablespoons mango butter (or shea butter, but you’ll have that shea butter scent)

• 6 drops sandalwood

• 4 drops labdanum

• 4 drops cardamom

• 4 drops vanilla

• 4 drops amber

• 4 drops steam-distilled lemon (steam-distilled is important!)

Instructions

You’re going to start by dropping two and a half tablespoons of mango butter into a glass jar. Mine could only fit about this much and it’ll last me a long time. You don’t need much!

Then you’re going to melt the mango butter in a double boiler or microwave. Microwave is faster, but you really have to watch it. Not up close, but you have to watch it. Microwaves vary, so start with 20 or 30 seconds. I melted mine in thirty-second intervals, and it took about a minute and ten seconds.

Then you let it cool down a little bit! Next, add six drops of sandalwood oil.

Then, four drops of labdanum, four drops of cardamom for a little heat, four drops of vanilla, and four drops of amber.

Lastly, four drops of steam-distilled lemon so it’s not phototoxic.

Mix it up! It should smell amazing right about now.

And then all you need to do is pop the mixture into the freezer for about five minutes, so it’s hardened up.

It’s that easy to make your own all-natural scent balm right at home! And all you do is apply it wherever for a hint of this bright, fresh scent.

It’s lemony, but sexy ‘cause of the amber, cardamom, and labdanum. It’s very elevated and it doesn’t smell like a lemon drop.

But if you’re thinking this isn’t gonna work, then don’t do it, boo boo. Don’t do it. ;)
