Shea & Cocoa Nourishing Body Butter
Containing a blend of super hydrating shea and cocoa butters, this formula is intensely moisturising and wonderfully nourishing for all skin types, particularly dry or irritated skin.
Shea and cocoa butter naturally contain essential fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants to promote youthfulness. Almond oil, also rich in vitamins and essential fatty acids, is wonderful for treating skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. Ideal to use after shaving or for irritated skin.
Ingredients
- 50g shea butter
- 30g cocoa butter
- 2 tablespoons of almond oil
- 15 - 20 drops of your favourite essential oils
Method: Melt the butters in a heatproof bowl on top of a saucepan of simmering water or in the microwave. Once melted allow to cool slightly before adding your almond oil. Place in the fridge to firm up, about 30 minutes. Once firm use a fork, whisk, electric beaters or mixer to whip into a light and fluffy texture. Stir in essential oils and place in your 120ml jar.
Directions for use: use as often as you like. For very dry skin, daily use is recommended. Suitable for body and face.
Makes 1 x 120ml jar
