Measure all ingredients except essential oils into a heat proof measuring cup. (I use Pyrex.) Place the cup in a hot water bath until the wax is nearly fully melted. Remove from heat and stir well.

Pour the mixture into lip balm tubes or other stick type dispensers. Label and smooth on before going outside amongst the buggers. Note that the oil/wax mixture may melt in the sun so it's best to store it in a cooler or other insulated environment -- or be careful opening it in the sun.
