I had all this lip balm left over from this recipe here, so I decided to add a little beeswax and make it into a lotion bar/ solid perfume.
Ingredients:
20% Cocoa Butter
30% Mango Butter
20% Beeswax
22% Carrier Oil
7% Lanolin
.25% Vitamin E Oil
.1% Sweetener ( Honey, Glycerin, or Stevia) optional
This was the recipe that I used to create the lip balm above. I crossed out two ingredients, because I previously listed those ingredients for personalization and I did not use those ingredients when I made my base.
To make the lotion bar I simply melted the balm base in a double boiler and added about 1.5 ounces beeswax. When fully melted I poured mixture into a silicone mold, added .04oz EO Blend (2 sample sizes) of an EO blend I ordered from Essential Wholesale, stirred and let sit overnight.
Note: I had about 16ounces of balm base, so adjust beeswax amount accordingly or just use sample recipe below.
Results:
This bar is huge, lol, but it smells so good, I will be ordering more of those EO blends, I love anything with Neroli EO! I made this with the intention of just trying out the lotion bar recipe, but I added so much EO that it doubles as a light solid perfume as well.
Here is a another simple recipe for a lotion bar as well.
Ingredients:
3 ounces beeswax
2 ounces cocoa butter
3 ounces sweet almond oil
Enjoy!
