lotion bars

i made the most delightful thing today,

lotion bars.  

i find that by creating something beautiful, it is a certain pick-me-up to the day.

i've been into making my own natural products lately.

remember these? 

the bars of lotion are so easy to make.  they are simply made with three ingredients:

shea butter, beeswax and coconut oil all melted together and then 

poured into a mold to set.  you can add essential oil as well, if you'd like.

i added lavender to this recipe.  they feel and smell so relaxing.  i'll just keep a bowl 

of the bars handy for a quick moisurizing pamper during this cold, dry season.

if you're interested, i found this handmade natural beauty products e-course
