Need a recipe for homemade hand cream to soothe dry winter skin? Here's my favorite blend of butters and oils to moisturize:


Homemade Hand Cream Recipe:

ingredients

3 ounces coconut oil (cheaper in bulk: [ Ссылка ])
1.75 ounces mango butter (available here: [ Ссылка ])
1 ounce olive oil
0. 125 ounces beeswax (I like these white pellets: [ Ссылка ])


instructions

1. Melt the oil, butter, and beeswax in a double boiler set over low heat.

2. Remove from the heat and add the fragrance oil and essential oil, if using. Stir well until fully combined.

3. Set on the counter to cool at room temperature until solidified, at least 4 hours, or overnight (or fridge for 2 hours, or freezer for 30 minutes)

4. Whip until white fluffy using electric mixer, about ten minutes. If consistency does not change after whipping, place the oils in the fridge for 15 minutes and try again.

5. Store in clean container at room temperature. May melt if stored above 80 degrees.

notes

If you don’t have a double boiler, just use a glass on stainless bowl set over a pan with one inch of water.

If your house is very warm, you can store this in the fridge.

If you just want a moisturizing balm, there is no need to whip. Simply melt, mix, and store!
