Facial Lotion and Body Lotion Recipe

Application:

• This basic recipe for four ounces of facial lotion can be individualized by adding essential oils; a body lotion can be made simply by increasing the recipe volume.

Ingredients:

• 40 gram avocado or jojoba oil
• 30 gram rosewater or another flower water
• 30 gram lanolin
• 20-30 drops essential oils
• Yield: about 112 gram

Instructions:

• Heat lanolin in a double boiler until a thin liquid is obtained.
• Add the vegetable oil and stir slowly over medium heat.
• At the same time, heat rosewater to the same temperature.
• Then slowly add the rosewater to the other mixture while under rapid continual stirring.
• Before it cools completely, add the essential oils and mix again briefly.
• Pour into a bottle and store in a cool place.
• Choose essential oils that correspond to your skin type.
