  • Small mixing bowl
  • Whisk or hand mixer for a whipped texture
  • Measuring spoons & cups
  • Glass jar with lid for storage
  • Spoon or spatula for transferring the lotion

Materials

  • ¼ cup shea butter deeply moisturizing, packed with vitamins A & E
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or almond oil locks in hydration and nourishes skin
  • 16 drops essential oil blend choose one or mix for added benefits: Lavender – Calming, anti-inflammatory, and soothing, Rosemary – Increases circulation and improves skin tone, Frankincense – Firms skin and reduces fine lines, Lemon – Brightens and evens skin tone.

Instructions

Melt the shea butter

  • Using a double boiler (or a heatproof bowl over simmering water), gently warm the shea butter until softened but not fully liquefied.

Mix in carrier oil

  • Stir in the coconut or almond oil until fully blended.

Add essential oils

  • Once the mixture has cooled slightly, add the essential oils and mix well.

Whip for a luxurious texture

  • Use a hand mixer or whisk to whip the lotion until it reaches a light, creamy consistency.

Store & use

  • Transfer to a clean glass jar and store in a cool, dry place. Apply a small amount daily for soft, youthful skin.

Notes

Benefits:

  • Shea butter hydrates and reduces the appearance of fine lines.
  • Coconut/almond oil deeply nourishes and protects.
  • Essential oils provide anti-aging and skin-rejuvenating properties.
This recipe yields approximately ⅓ to ½ cup of lotion, depending on how much air is incorporated during whipping.
  • Without whipping: About ⅓ cup of lotion, which will be denser.
  • With whipping: Expands slightly to ½ cup, creating a lighter, fluffier texture.
This amount is typically enough for 2–4 weeks of daily use, depending on application.

Shelf Life & Storage Recommendations:

Shelf Life: Approximately 3–6 months when stored properly.
Storage Tips:
  • Store in a clean, airtight glass jar to prevent contamination.
  • Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain freshness.
  • If the climate is warm, store in the refrigerator for a firmer texture and extended shelf life.
  • Always use clean, dry hands or a small spoon to scoop out the lotion to avoid introducing bacteria.
 

Customization Tips for Different Skin Types:

✨ For Dry Skin:
  • Increase shea butter to ⅓ cup for extra hydration.
  • Add 1 teaspoon of argan oil for deep moisture.
🌿 For Oily or Acne-Prone Skin:
  • Use grapeseed oil instead of coconut or almond oil (it’s lightweight & non-comedogenic).
  • Add 5 drops of tea tree oil for antibacterial benefits.
💖 For Sensitive Skin:
  • Swap lemon essential oil for chamomile or calendula oil to reduce irritation.
  • Use jojoba oil instead of almond oil for a gentler formula.
🌟 For Extra Anti-Aging Benefits:
  • Mix in 1 teaspoon of rosehip oil (rich in vitamin C & promotes collagen).
  • Add 5 drops of geranium essential oil to improve skin elasticity.
