How To make Scented Shea Butter Cream Moisturiser

 

INGREDIENTS NEEDED:

1)      4 oz (8 tablespoons) of Raw unrefined Shea butter

2)      two tablespoons of Raw virgin Coconut oil

3)      one teaspoon Extra virgin Olive oil

4)      2 drops of Natural vitamin E oil as preservative and antioxidant

5)      one drop of Natural vanilla essential oil for scenting

6)      a glass Jar with tight lid

7)      a large glass or wooden bowl

8)      Electric or hand whisk mixer

 

HOW TO MIX:

This is really easy.

1)      Before you start to prepare whipped Shea butter, make sure your unrefined Shea butter is at room temperature, you can leave it out overnight and by morning it would be soft enough to work with. Do not melt or heat it!

2)      Put your Shea butter in a bowl and mash it with a fork. The same way you make a mashed potato.

3)      Add base oils (coconut and olive) and mash a little bit more.

4)      Add vitamin E Oil which is a natural preservative and a strong antioxidant.

5)      Put the mixture into the mixing bowl. Mix it on a high speed with electric mixer for approximately 5 minutes. you can also use a hand mixer.

6)      This step is optional, you can add your chosen essential oil(s) according to the scent you prefer. I used vanilla for mine and I love how it turned out. just one tiny drop does the magic. Mix it a few more minutes to blend with your whipped cream.

7)      Put whipped cream in a clean airtight glass jar(s) and close it.

8)      Keep it in a dry, dark, and cool place at room temperature. Your bathroom cabinet is fine as well.

 

There you have it, easy and cheap but your skin will love it

 

TIPS!

·         Shea Butter’s shelf life is approximately one to two years. It should be kept in dark, cool place.

·         You should keep your Shea butter or Shea butter creams in closed glass or heavy-duty plastic containers. They should be airtight.

·         If you don’t want to put any preservatives in your homemade Shea butter creams, never put any water into the cream. Water causes quicker disintegration of the elements.

·         Protect your cream from absorbing humidity from air by keeping it always firmly closed.

·         Wash your hands every time before using Shea butter or Shea butter cream, because you are contaminating it every time you touch it. This will prolong its half-life.
