INGREDIENTS
100g Shea butter
15ml coconut oil
20 drop lemon citrus essential oil
2×50ml pots ( there will be a small amount of extra available for you to try right away)
PROCESS
Firstly, gently melt the Shea butter in a double boiler. If you don't have a double boiler, you can create one by placing your mixing bowl over a saucepan of hot water. Please make sure the water is genuinely hot and not simply simmering. Also, make sure that the mixing bowl is not actually touching the water but just suspended above it.
Once this is done and the Shea butter is melted, remove it from the heat and stir in your coconut oil. Refrigerate the mixture for thirty minutes, at this point you may notice that the mixture is roughly half set. This cooling period is necessary before the essential oil is added to the mixture in order to prevent them from evaporating. It also helps to maintain both their therapeutic and preserving properties.
At this point you have two options in terms of the consistency of your mixture.
If you would like to make a hand cream , you can simply whisk the essential oil in very quickly, which will result in a hard hand cream.
For a lighter consistency, something resembling lighter body butter, you may whisk the mixture for long , making the whole thing smooth and light.
Pour your hand cream in your jar and cover.
