Petroleum jelly is easy to make and it is an ingredient of many other products. Naturalists may substitute a natural oil, such as grape seed oil or sweet almond oil for the baby or mineral oil to create an “un-petroleum jelly.”

Materials:
1 ounce (weight) beeswax
1/2 cup baby or mineral oil

Instructions:
Melt the beeswax in a microwave or a double boiler. Stir in the mineral oil. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir until cool.
