Home Made Body Lotion
Hey!! its me again to tell you how to make home made almond body lotion
Here is what you need:
1/4 teaspoon borax powder
1/2 cup water
1 cup almond oil
2 tablespoons almond extract
in a small heat resistant container, dissolve the borax in the water. You can find borax in any grocery store next to the laundry detergent. In a second heat resistant container combine the oil and grated beeswax. I ordered my oil and beeswax online at mountainroseherb.com
Put the oil and beeswax in the microwave for 2 minutes, or until the wax has melted
Put water and borax mixture in the microwave for one minute, or until its just under a boiling temperature your goal is to get the water and the oil to approximately the same temperature before combining them.
Next pour the borax water in the blender and turn it on. Then while the blender is running add the oil in a slow steady stream (in the little hole on top)
blend on high for about 2 minutes. It will look white and thick if it looks really runny,just let it cool off for 5 minutes or so and then blend it again as it cools it will get thicker.
blend in the almond extract and pour in to bottles with lids (you can get them at target for like a $1)
If your lotion is still runny just stick it back in the blender for 1 min.
