Ingredients

1/2 cup Distilled Water
1/2 cup pure Aloe Vera Gel
1/2 cup Grated Beeswax or Beeswax Pastilles
1/4 cup Fractionated Coconut Oil (can sub virgin coconut oil or refined coconut oil)
1/4 cup Jojoba oil (Sweet Almond or Grapeseed Oil also work)
1 tsp Vitamin E oil or Rosemary Extract
16 drops Essential oils (your choice)

Instructions

Combine water and aloe vera gel in a separate bowl or measuring cup.
Place beeswax and oil in a double boiler and heat water on medium until beeswax is melted.
Bring water mixture to around the same temperature as beeswax mixture. (Either in a double boiler or in the microwave)
Add beeswax and oil to a food processor and let cool for a few minutes (not too long or it will start to harden)
Turn on the food processor and VERY slowly pour water/aloe mixture in.
Continue slowly pouring as the mixture starts to emulsify. Stop occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Continue blending and pouring for up to 15 minutes or until you are happy with the consistency of your lotion.
Add vitamin E oil or Rosemary extract and essential oils and mix well.
Place finished lotion in containers and use within 3 months.
