Christmas gift ideas part 4 🎁 These make the most beautiful gifts, just wrap in some brown paper and your loved ones will thank you ✨ DIY lotion bars (these work just like lotions when you rub them over your skin and also make a great massage bar!) Ingredients (to make two bars) 55g Cocoa butter 20g Mango butter 5g sweet almond oil 10 drops sweet Orange essential oil 1g vitamin E oil Notes about the ingredients: This bar doesn’t need a preservative as it is solid butters and oils - (the vitamin E is optional but will help naturally preserve it and stop it going rancid) Method: 🌱 Gently heat the butters using double boil method until they are an oil consistency. 🌱 Take off the heat and allow to cool, add Almond oil and vitamin E when the oil has reached below 40•C but wait until room temperature to add essential oils 🌱 Add to your mould and chill overnight in the fridge! I’m going to be sharing a few more lotion bars over the coming months - so let me know if there are any in particular you’d like to see! #myplasticfreehome #diyskincare #diygifts #diychristmas #diychristmasgifts #naturalskincare #lotionbars #massagebar #ecochristmas
