This is a wonderful rich, full oil butter similar to the consistency of petroleum jelly, but feels much nicer, and totally natural. Though formulated for feet, it is really helpful for all dry skin, especially elbows and heels.
This is an all oil formulation (Anhyrous), so no preservative is required. However, we recommend some Rosemary Oleoresin Extract to lengthen the shelf life.
Ingredients:
- 10g Yellow Beeswax
- 25g Coconut Oil
- 25g Mango Butter
- 15g Cocoa Butter
- 50g/60ml Jojoba Oil or Macadamia Oil
- 20 drops Essential Oil Blend of your choice (I like 10 drops Valencia Orange Essential Oil and 10 drops Lavender French Essential Oil)
- 10 drops Rosemary Oleoresin Extract (optional)
- Small Cosmetic Jars or Bail Jars
Method:
- Combine all ingredients except Essential Oils in a pyrex jug or ceramic bowl.
- Microwave on Medium/High until just melted.
- Allow mixture to cool a little and add Essential Oil blend and combine well.
- Pour into jars, tubs or pots.
Tip: If you wish to apply to your feet at night, use thin cotton socks to avoid making your sheets very greasy. You will wake up with lovely smooth feet next morning!
