How to Make Lotion Bars

$2
1 Hour
Easy
This is a really simple project that would make GREAT gifts for Mother's Day or for any gardener. It moisturizers chapped, dry hands and is made from all natural ingredients. You can also use the lotion bar on you legs, feet, face, lips...anywhere! I made small "bars" for lip balm.
It just takes 3 simple ingredients:


Coconut Oil


Beeswax


Cocoa Butter
All you need is simple equipment you have in your kitchen cupboards:


Equipment:


Stockpot


Glass Bowl


Wood Skewer (something to stir the melted oils with)


Soap Mold, Silicon cupcake or mini tart pan, or metal cupcake pan.
Melt the ingredients in a double boiler. Pour into soap mold or silicone baking dish. Let it cool and ta da! Homemade lotion bars!
