HOMEMADE LOTION RECIPE AS PROMISED 😁
Ingredients
- 1 cup grass-fed beef tallow (melted)
- 1/4 cup organic (fair trade always💗) cocoa butter
- 1/4 cup jojoba oil
- Optional: 10–20 drops of essential oils (e.g., lavender, vanilla, peppermint, rose, frankincense)
Equipment
- Small pot or double boiler
- Airtight glass jars for storage
- Electric mixer
Instructions
- Melt the solid ingredients: Combine the beef tallow and cocoa butter in a small pot or double boiler over low heat. Gently warm until just melted to avoid overheating the ingredients.
- Add liquid oil: Once the tallow and cocoa butter are liquefied, remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the jojoba oil.
- Cool and solidify: Pour the mixture into a glass or metal container and allow it to cool and solidify in the refrigerator or freezer until it is no longer translucent but not completely hard (around 15-30 minutes).
- Once cooled to a soft, solid consistency, use an electric mixer to whip the mixture until it becomes light and fluffy.
- Add optional essential oils, you'll probably want to as the beef tallow smells kinda nas-tayyyy, 🤢. The cocao butter definitely makes the smell way yummier though!😍
- Transfer the finished lotion into airtight glass jars for storage.
The lotion can be stored at room temperature for 3-6 months. Refrigeration can extend the shelf life to over a year!!
