Are you still using the chemical laden commercial lotion you find at the mall or local pharmacy? You may or may not realize that there are natural alternatives that are not only healthy and work better but, are way less expensive. They usually only have 2-4 basic ingredients and literally take minutes to make!
You can customize your lotion to your skin type and desired scent, and you can even make it for baby (HINT: Roman Chamomile…) Our favorites include Lavander, Eucalyptus, Peppermint, and Rose.
Here are the basics:
- Combine a 1/2 cup of almond oil, 1/4 cup of beeswax, 1/4 cup of refined coconut oil and 5-15 drops of your favorite doTERRA Essential oils in a medium sized mason jar.
- Place the jar in a sauce pan/pot with a few inches of water and turn on medium heat.
- Stir the ingredients as they start to melt.
- Pour into individual glass containers for easy access.
- Use as you would normally… keep in mind that this recipe can be adjusted to get the right consistency for you…
