Hi Liz, Love your videos! I'd love to try this out for my chronic pain. I cannot find your recipe for the infused coconut oil though. I do know how to make it but how do I know how much bud/oil to use for my infusion for your recipe? Any help would be great! Thank you!
Excellent video! I make a pain salve myself as I have osteoarthritis in my knees, back and neck, I include pure unrefined (and expensive) Emu oil in my recipe which allows all the good stuff to get deeper into the skin and into the joint area, wondering if you think this could be an added benefit if added to your recipe?
I cannot use essential oils due to allergies. Do I need to add the extra 2 T of an oil to the mix? Also…How do I know how much decarboxed cannabis to use? I have 1:1. I can't find that anywhere. I have the Levo infusion machine and the Ardent Decarboxylator . I have MS with lots of muscle pain. Thank you.
Hey Liz, I realize this is one of your older videos but figured I'd comment anyway.
7:04 I had a thought while noticing that the beeswax pellets are the last to melt. Maybe it would be easier to melt the beeswax pellets first (melting temp of 144-147°F) then add the cocoa butter (93-101°F), shea butter (90°F) then finish off with the infused coconut oil (78°F)
That should minimize the chance of burning the cocoa and shea butters and prevent some of us from getting the urge to turn the heat up to speed along the process. 🙋♀️
I just ordered the supplies to make a batch and can't wait to give this a try! Thank you for sharing these discoveries with us! 💚
a few comments, the turmeric spice or capsules have a very low active percentage….a curcumin would be better as it is the active ingredient in the turmeric or the essential oil. Also not sure if y'all know this but using ANY aluminum is bad for our health, then adding hot to it, it will leach into your salve. Please use glass. There are many small glass jars available to buy or if you can find, using baby food jars works great, plus you are recycling!! The lids seal very well! Also….for your essential oils go to newdirectionsaromatics amazing prices Ive been buying from them for 15 yrs. amazon is good for your containers though!
Oh my goodness, I’ve been learning from you and watching you this whole time and didn’t realize you have Ehlers-Danlos too! I have type 3/hypermobility type. Thank you for what you’re doing, your videos have been a great help to me, I’ve been using medical marijuana to help my pain, and as you know EDS pain is excruciating. I’m learning to make my own edibles since the ones at the dispensary cost a fortune
This recipe is nearly identical to mine. However I use FECO i make instead of infused CO, plus cbd isolate. In addition to the ingredients you listed, I also use arnica, calendula, menthol, ginger extract, vit e oil, plain unrefined coconutoil, & capsaicin oil (just a tiny bit of that). I add the feco at the end to be sure it doesn't overheat & destroy some of the terpenes.
Thank you, and since I'm an essential oil freak, I do have all those you mentioned, lol. I just ran across your videos tonight and have watched a few, but this one was so great to see. Find plenty about edibles but this is the first I've found on making pain balms. Fibromyalgia drove me to use cannabis since I'm not a big fan of pharmaceuticals and their side effects. Again, thank you.

Thank you for this recipe! I'd love to offer you a $25 gift card towards some great organic therapeutic oils. 💞
What is the coconut oil infused with?
Great video! I started using a cbd lotion from Eden's Herbals and it makes a huge difference!
How many oz does this make
What kind of tapioca starch do you use?
What is the cocoa oil infused with?
Hi, Can you please share the link to your infused coconut oil? Is it different from your canna butter recipe? Thank you.
Thank you for this video. I've been using this recipe and everyone I give it to wants more.

Thank you! Brilliant! Well done!
Where can I get a written recipe
Hi all, I'm saving up to make this mix. Happy to have this here. It's a luxury

Nice, nice, very nice. However, you can google Weedborn and learn how to cure it pretty easily.
Do you have to use any type of preservatives to make them last? If not, what's the shelf life or would I need to keep it in the fridge?
This is fantastic…..❤
If you want treatment, look for Weedborn's website. These products are the best right now in my opinion.
Thanks for the video question can u use cornstarch instead of the tapioca starch
New subscriber I’m so excited to do this recipe.
You are so adorable! Your recipe really works for me and some shoulder pain I had as well as anxiety and tremors. Bless you!

You know your good honey🔥very nice to see😋
Now mine salve feels like it has grains of sand in it. Is it old? Does it spoil?
Liz could you use corn starch in place of the tapioca starch?
What brand of vertiver do you use? I have found a lot of fakes
Can I use soy wax instead of beeswax?
Can you use cornstarch instead of tapioca starch?
My beeswax pallets are white. Are these the wrong ones? They also aren't melting…. Can anyone add insight on this?
Where do she add the canbis in. It's called infused oil
A quick question; would potato starch work in place of tapioca starch?
