Rosemary, wintergreen, clove and thyme might be good ones. I don't know any others besides those tho lol. Good christmas present idea, though I might steal it for my mom, lol

These are good ideas, thank you! The big problem I'm having is actually finding a selection of flavor oils to begin with... 😅😂

highly recommend! I've never done lip balms before, but a few years back I made bath bombs for Mother's Day one year and my mom LOVED them! It's quite rewarding to make something like this. Humblebee & me has a lot of resources for stuff like this.

I was thinking about doing a little bundle of maybe four different lip balms, each one with its own flavor. I'm 100% set on peppermint, but I'm not really finding anything else that suits my fancy. I'm also not sure what is even /ideal/ for lip balm flavors.

I just want nice, safe, neutral flavors that will take care of the oily/buttery flavor that natural lip balm ingredients give. (Beeswax, shea butter, etc.)

If all else fails... Maybe I can just do everything in peppermint anyway?

I also!!!! found really cute label templates on Etsy that I bought. I'm a lot in love with them and I'm really excited to start testing the formula I have in mind. I can't wait to have the final product in tubes with these cute as heck labels. 🥰
