Homemade salve

Does anyone make their own CD friendly bottom salve? I just found a recipe with olive oil, beeswax, comfrey, and calendula that looks fun - and a lot cheaper than the pricey 2 oz. jars of CD cream. Has anyone tried it? Do they work well? I think I'm going to make some - it looks fun.

    I'd be worried about the beeswax in that one.

    I just use coconut oil.

    i've used only coconut oil in the past, but recently i've started using a mix of coconut oil, arrowroot powder, and a little bit of tea tree oil and it seems to work a lot better.

    I've been wanting to try this one, but haven't gotten around to getting any shea butter.
