    Tupperware has smigons... if they are small enough (probably not!). Somewhere that sells candle-making equipment?

    I have one of those Tupperware jars, but then she'd know it was from me... I used to be a Tupperware demonstrator...

    That said: MrsMac, the recipes are direct from a Tupperware Recipe sheet! Not quite sure how you'd do it without the Tupperware though... but don't let that stop you

    Coconut Lip Balm
    Makes : 80g
    Prep : 5 minutes
    Ingredients:
    20g Aloe Vera Gel
    20g Vaseline or Petroleum Jelly
    40g Coconut Oil

    Method (as on the Tupperware recipe sheet)
    Measure ingredients with digital scales, placing them in the Tupperwave 1 litre jug. Mix ingredients together with spatula until well combined.

    Cover jug and microwave on medium (500 watts) for 2 minutes. Stir with the spatula until smooth.

    Let balm cool slightly. Pour a portion of the balm into the Travel Accessories Creme Jar and the remainder can be poured into a TupperCare Snack Cup. Let the balm cool completely and then apply to the lips as often as required.


    HONEY SCRUB
    Makes : approximately 300ml
    Prep : 5 minutes
    Ingredients:
    20g sea salt flakes
    40g brown sugar
    40g sorbolene creme
    15g 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    10g honey (at room temperature)


    METHOD:
    Using digital scales, measure ingredients and placing them in the Quick Chef II, with the paddle whisk attachment. Cover and process until combined.

    Using a spatula, remove excess contents from the sides of the Quick Chef II. Scrub should be slightly runny in consistency.

    Apply a small amount to desired area (hands, feet, knees, heels or elbows) and gently massage in a circular motion. Leave mixture on the skin for 15 minutes.

    Rinse with warm water and pat dry.

    Use on a weekly basis to keep skin velvety smooth.

    What about Manicare pots from the chemist/priceline Scone? You know, they make little travel sized jars for you to take when you travel?

    Hairhouse warehouse have little pots with screw lids that are perfect for lip balms, I've used them before.
