gingerinarkansas Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 I had a recipe written down for a lotion bar...not sure where it came from but wanted to know if it sounded like a good one. I have very little oils/butters but I do have the ingredients to make this. Can someone advise me. I don't even know what a lotion bar is suppose to look or feel like.

soapermom Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 that should make a decent lotion bar, for what you have on hand, the only thing I wouldn't use is 2 tsp of EO... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerinarkansas Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 Thanks soapermom. Like I said, I know nothing about what it's suppose to look like or feel like. I found recipe and it worked with my limited supply of supplies. Ginger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapermom Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 I have never made one w/o cocoa butter. I always use that along with other butters, I dont know how solid it will be with shea alone..so it might be a tad softer.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerinarkansas Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 How long do you wait before using? Ginger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
