Ingredients
- 15 ml (1 tbsp) or 17 g of organic shea butter (raw)
- 80 ml (5 tbsp + 1 tsp) or 65 g of calendula macerate
- 3 ml (90 drops) of organic true lavender essential oil (Lavandula angustifolia)
- 2 ml (60 drops) of Ho wood essential oil (Cinnamomum camphora linaloliferum)
- 1 ml (30 drops) of vitamin E
- 100 ml amber spray bottle
CHILDREN: For children 5 and under, halve the amount of essential oils.
This recipe has an essential oil concentration of 5%, which is higher than a cosmetic dosage, but still rather low considering that lavender and Ho wood are two very gentle essential oils well tolerated by the skin.
Preparation steps
1. Melt the shea butter in a double boiler and remove from heat.
2. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
3. Pour everything into the bottle.
How to use it
