Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup pure shea butter, softened (in microwave or double boiler)
• 1 cup pure coconut oil (mine is in soft solid stage at room temperature)
• 1/3 cup arrowroot powder* (optional)
• 75-100 drops of lavender or other essential oil (use more or less, to your liking)
• * I updated the recipe to include arrowroot as an optional ingredient to give just a little drier texture to the mixture. Adding the arrowroot results in moist, glowing skin without an oily residue.

Directions

• Place all ingredients in a stand mixer or large bowl. Beat until soft peaks form, then transfer to glass storage containers.
