Put in water, castor oil, coconut oil and the beeswax pellets together in a double boiler. Leave it to boil and give the mixture time to melt.
Once soft enough, stir the mixture with a tool of your choice (a chopstick or spatula would work great). Add your preferred essential oils. This makes a 5% dilution with a maximum of 30 drops for 30 ml/ 1oz. Be cautious not to increase the dilution ratio as essential oils are powerful.
Take a container with a lid and pour the mixture into it. Your batch can be put in different packs depending on your needs.

Leave it to dry until it turns into a paste viscous enough to rub on your skin. Now you have your own homemade vicks vapo rub.
Tightly close the lid and keep the container on a cool and dry place. Use as necessary.
