THE POWER OF MAKING YOUR OWN PRODUCTS
MAKE YOUR OWN LOTION FOR MOTHER’S DAY
So many products have ingredients we don’t know about. Now more than ever is the time to start looking at what you put on your skin. Make smooth, luxurious lotion at home with almond oil, coconut oil, beeswax, and optional essential oils.
Prep Time
20 mins
Servings: 1 cup
Ingredients
- ½ cup almond oil (or jojoba oil, or any other liquid oil)
- ¼ cup coconut oil
- ¼ cup beeswax pellets
- 1 tsp vitamin E oil (optional)
- 2 TBSP Shea butter (or cocoa butter, optional)
- essential oils (optional)
- vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Combine the almond oil, coconut oil, beeswax, and shea or cocoa butter if using, in a double boiler or a glass bowl on top of a simmering pan of water.
- Stir occasionally as the ingredients melt.
- When all ingredients are completely melted, add the vitamin E oil if using and any essential oils or scents like vanilla.
- Pour into a glass jar or tin for storage. Small mason jars work perfectly for this. Note: This will not pump well in a lotion pump!
- Use as you would regular lotion. This lotion is ultra-moisturizing and more oily than water-based lotions so you won’t need to use as much. It also has a longer shelf life than some homemade lotion recipes since all ingredients are already shelf stable and no water is added. Use within 6 months for best moisturizing benefits.
Notes
A little goes a long way! This lotion is incredibly nourishing and is also great for diaper rash on baby, for eczema, and for preventing stretch marks.

I have been to relax n glow quite a few times for a massage. Every time I walk out feeling 100 times better. As soon as you walk through the doors you feel instantly relaxed and welcomed. My last time I went the other day I got a facial and microdermabrasion done for the first time ever and my face has NEVER felt better. I have bad acne and within one session my skin is clearer! I also purchased the face soap and got a toner which feel AMAZING. I love a place where you know they make all of the products and it’s all natural. 10/10 would recommend and I will always continue to go here !
