Homemade Lavender Body Lotion

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a quart-sized mason jar, add shea butter and coconut oil. Bring 2″ of water to boil in a small pot. Place mason jar into the water, and simmer until oils have melted together. Remove from heat, and allow to cool. 

  2. Add in olive oil and essential oils, and stir. Allow to sit until almost solid (you can expedite this by placing it in the freezer, just keep an eye on it). Transfer mixture to a medium-sized bowl, and then use an electric mixer to whip the mixture until light and the texture of lotion. *This can take up to 10 minutes, so be prepared.  

  3. If the mixture isn’t whipping together well, it may not be solid enough.

  4. Pour mixture back into the mason jar, and store at room temperature for up to 6 months.
