After Sun Balm

After Sun Balm

This is a beautiful after sun balm to rub all over your body, after being in the sun. It’s soothing, moisturizing, and will give your skin a beautiful glow. It’s so important to nourish your skin after a day in the sun – not only will this After Sun Balm moisturize and soothe, but the essential oils bring a lovely aromatherapeutic experience!

1.5 oz. of shea butter
1.5 oz of Jojoba Oil
1/2 oz. of Avocado Oil
1 oz. of Coconut Oil
1/2 oz. of Beeswax Pellets – Organic

20 drops of Lavender Essential Oil
12 drops of Neroli Essential Oil
20 drops of Sweet Orange Essential Oil

 

Simply melt the oils and butters in a double boiler, or a metal bowl set over a saucepan. When they have melted, remove from heat and stir in the essential oils. Pour into a 4-6 0z sterilized jar or tin. (If you plan to keep/store your balm for a while, I recommend using an opaque glass jar because the Essential Oils are light sensitive). Store for up to 6 months in a cool, dark cabinet. If you want to take it with you on your travels, you can find an opaque plastic jar at Mountain Rose Herbs, along with all the other ingredients.
