NON-GREASY LOTION DOTS RECIPE

Makes 100 g

INGREDIENTS

35 g Shea Butter
20 g Cocoa Butter
25 g Beeswax
19 g Jojoba Oil
1 g Vitamin E
1–2 g Fragrance Oil

METHOD

1. Melt the beeswax, shea butter and cocoa butter gently in a double boiler.
2. Remove from the heat and add the jojoba oil. Mix well.
3. Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then add the vitamin E and fragrance oil.
4. Mix thoroughly.
5. Pour into lotion dot moulds.
6. Allow to cool and harden completely before removing from the moulds.

FOR A LESS OILY FINISH

Replace 5 g of the jojoba oil with 5 g arrowroot powder or tapioca starch. This will give the lotion dots a drier, silkier feel on the skin.

FRAGRANCE

You can use your favourite fragrance oil. Vanilla, Lavender, Rose, Sweet Orange or a soft floral fragrance work beautifully.
