Homemade Lotion Bars

This recipe for homemade lotion bars came from this blog :

http://littlehouseinthesuburbs.com/

I ordered the raw shea butter and beeswax from amazon. I already had the avacado oil on hand, but then I also added some jojoba oil and some aveda massage oil which has different essential oils added for a pleasant scent, albeit "hippie scent". But who doesn't love that? Besides my husband. You'll want to add some type of essential oil otherwise you'll smell waxy.

They turned out great! I've had something very similiar to this from Lush stores but these are much cheaper!




I used the paper cups because my muffin tin wasn't exactly squeaky clean and I didn't want bits of leftover muffin crust in my lotion bars. If your muffin tin is clean enough, you can ditch the paper cups altogether.

I love the lotion bar you gave me. Actually I think it's better than Lush! Thanks.
