Dry Skin Lotion
Ingredients
⅛ tsp borax
¼ cup distilled water
½ cup fractionated coconut oil
1 tbs grated beeswax
1 tsp scent (you may want to add this slowly and adjust to suit you)
⅛ tsp lecithin
½ cup aloe vera gel
Method
Combine water and borax. Bring borax and water almost to boiling.
In a separate pan mix oil and beeswax and heat until wax is melted. Slowly add borax/water to oil/beeswax, stirring briskly, a small wire whisk works perfectly or you can use a hand blender.
Add essential oils during the whisking process. Let cool to room temp. Once lotion is at room temp add the ½ cup aloe vera gel and whisk to incorporate fully into the lotion. Bottle.
