Moisture Bar Recipe

This is a great recipe for natural, moisturising, solid lotion bars

Makes 7-8 bars

You will need:

  • 165g White Cosmetic Beeswax
  • 85g Shea Butter
  • 75g Mango Butter
  • 160g Sweet Almond Oil
  • 8ml Lavender & Chamomile Essential Oils Blend or Skin-Safe Fragrance Oil, or leave unscented if preferred
  • Bar Moulds or Plain Soap Moulds


Directions:

In a bain marie (or heatproof glass bowl in a pan of simmering water), gently melt the beeswax, shea butter and mango butter.

Add the sweet almond oil and stir well, warming slightly if neccessary to combine the cold oil into the mixture.

Remove from the heat and let it cool a little then add the essential oil or fragrance oil and stir thoroughly.

Pour the liquid into the moulds and leave overnight until completely cold and hardened.

If the bars prove stubborn to release from the moulds, place them in the fridge for twenty mintues and they'll come out more easily.
