Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon petroleum jelly
-
1 teaspoon ground cloves OR 3–5 drops clove essential oil
Instructions
1. Soften the Base
Scoop the petroleum jelly into a small, microwave-safe bowl. If it’s too stiff to mix, warm it for 5–10 seconds until just soft—avoid melting it completely.
2. Mix in the Cloves
Add ground cloves or clove essential oil to the softened jelly. Stir well until smooth and fully combined.
3. Store Properly
Let the mixture cool completely. Transfer to a clean, airtight jar or tin, and keep in a cool, dry spot for easy access.
