INGREDIENTS:
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 heaping tbsp beeswax
- 1/4 cup aloe vera gel
- 2 tbsp witch hazel extract
- 10 drops soothing essential oil (I recommend peppermint)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Melt the avocado oil, coconut oil, and beeswax in a double boiler until fully combined. Transfer the melted mixture into the bowl you plan to mix in. Set aside for 20 minutes to cool
- Combine the aloe vera gel, witch hazel extract, and essential oil in a separate container
- When the oil mixture is slightly above room temperature, whisk using a hand mixer. While whisking, slowly pout the aloe mixture in until fully combined. Continue whipping for another 30 seconds or so until the desired texture is reached
- Transfer the lotion to an airtight container and store in a cool dry place. For extra relief, you can keep it in the fridge. Apply for sunburn relief and soothing!
know I designed this as a sunburn remedy… but I just can’t help using it for more than just sunburn relief! The soothing cooling feeling is addictive. And the light coconut peppermint smell is so refreshing.
Your skin will really love this stuff. All the ingredients are amazingly healthy for your skin.
