I make up a mixture in bain marie with almond oil, beeswax and essential oils which works beautifully for me. I have very long curly hair so it seems to like the extra moisturising ang soaks in like a dream, tho not sure about fine hair.doesnt seem to be any build up for me, apply once daily and leaves lovey scent too depending on essences used.

Hi lisabelle. I must admit I dont really work to a recipe, I fill a 50 gram jar with almond oil, then add probably about 1 to 2 teaspoons of grated natural beeswax (as opposed to refined white beeswax) then melt together in bain marie. See how that goes cos once its set you can always remelt and add more wax or oil as desired. then add essential oils of your choice, I tend to use ylang ylang and lavender with maybe some sort of citrus. Patchouli is great too with ylang and citrus. Hope this helps.
