Solid Perfume Balms Tutorial - Using Naturals & Essential Oils
Why make a solid perfume balm?
Aromatic Perfume Balms are solid perfumes which are gently massaged into your pulse, just below the ears and by the elbow. Easy to carry solid perfumes are handy for handbags as they won't spill or leak. You can use a lip pot, lip balm tube, or find a lovely, old vintage powder jar (be creative), and even a medicine/pill key rings, after all we’re hand crafters!
100% Natural Essential Oils in the Balms
Sweet Seduction Perfume Balm
My favourite so far among my aromatic perfume balms!
I wear this every day while working, I just can’t resist sniffing! It’s sweet, citrusy with a fresh alluring powdery scent that floats. It’s a very enticing scent. My sister grabbed mine yesterday, she can’t resist it too! Hope you like this too!
