Introduction

Feel free to use the following recipe-

Here are the specifics of my first attempt at following your posted lotion making directions. They were sooooo easy to follow. And the cream turned out great!

This was made on the blog on January 19th, 2010.

Ingredients

         .1 oz wt. Citric Acid
          .3 oz wt. Emulsifying Wax
          .5 oz wt. Liquid Glycerin
          .4 oz wt. Stearic Acid
          2 oz wt. Coconut Oil
          6.9 oz wt. Water

Equipment

Scale
Immersion Blender
Beakers
Microwave
Pipettes
Containers to fill

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a microwave-safe container. Heat until just melted. Wisk quickly until turns white and milky looking. Poured into approximately two 4 fl. oz containers and 1/2 oz left to play with. I didn't scent it because I prefer unscented lotions, but a few drops of Orange Essential would go nicely with the coconut oil.

Thanks for the informative and easy directions. It is incredibly fun to "design" and make a cream that costs pennies and turns out wonderful on the first try. -Joy
