    Lemon-Lavender Body Lotion

    Source of Recipe

    From "Gifts in Jars" by Natalie Wise

    Recipe Introduction

    "This luscious lavender body lotion is the perfect gift for anyone who lives in a cold climate. The shea butter locks in moisture and skin drinks up the coconut oil. This will keep solid in cold climates, but if you live in a warm area, store in the refrigerator to prevent separating and melting. If it melts, just stir it together again and let it solidify in the refrigerator. I love lemon-lavender for a refreshing yet stress-relieving scent, but feel free to try other essential oils as well."

    List of Ingredients

    ◦  1 cup solidified coconut oil
    ◦  ¼ cup shea butter
    ◦  8 drops lemon or lemongrass essential oil
    ◦  8 drops lavender essential oil

    Recipe

    Combine all ingredients together in an electric mixer fitted with a paddle. Whip until light and well mixed, at least 5 minutes. Transfer to jars. Keep refrigerated, if necessary.

    Makes approximately 18 ounces
