In mine I use a third of each of the following olive oil (infused and strained), coconut oil and beeswax.
To minimise the evaporation of any active components I melt the wax first, add the coconut oil, wait for that to melt and then add the infused olive oil. Turn off the heat, let the residual heat in the bain marie remelt the coconut oil and then pour.
This is the colour I get for a simple flavoured lip balm. If I was to do a comfrey slave it would be a bit darker.
