Everything I used to make my first batch of body butter! Recipe: You need to sanitize your jar(s) before adding your lotion to them. I washed mine first with hot water and soap. Then I filled them with boiling hot water and let it sit for 10 minutes. 1 cup shea butter 1/2 cup almond oil 1 tbs jojoba oil 1/2 tbs beeswax 1 tsp vitamin E oil 40-50 drops rose essential oil 40-50 drops gardenia essential oil 1. Add shea butter, almond oil, jojoba oil and beeswax to a double boiler. Cook on low until fully melted. 2. Remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes. 3. Add vitamin E oil, rose essential oil and gardenia essential oil and mix. I tend to put a bit more than you are supposed to, so if you are unsure, maybe start with 30 of each for your first batch. 4. Move mixture to fridge for 10-15 minutes until soft, but scoopable. 5. Use a hand mixer to whip until creamy. 6. Add to sanitized jars and refrigerate. 7. You can make a loose paste of 1 tsp corn starch mixed with jojoba oil to help thicken if need be. This lotions should be good for 3-6 months at room temperature stored in a dark place. It should last 6-12 months refrigerated Amazon home, Amazon finds, Amazon favorites, Amazon crafts, healthy living, body butter, body lotion LTKFindsUnder50 LTKFindsUnder100 LTKHome
