SKIN SALVE

JULY 8, 2021

{Makes about 8oz., need glass jar(s)}

-1/2 cup virgin coconut oil 

-1/2 cup olive oil 

-1/2 cup Shea butter

-3 Tbsp beeswax (pastilles are best)

-3/4 tsp vitamin E

-1/2 tsp arrowroot or cornstarch (cuts greasiness)

20 drop lavender 

15 drops thyme 

15 drops geranium

10 drops melaleuca 

10 drops helichrysum 

10 drops frankincense 

Combine the first four ingredients in a glass jar with a double boiler concept. 

On medium low heat, melt and stir (I prefer using a disposal wooden popsicle stick) until completely melted and then remove the jar from the boiling water. Add the arrowroot powder and mix until smooth. 

Let mixture cool enough to where you can touch the jar for a couple seconds without it burning you. 

Then add vitamin E oil and the essential oil's and stir. Pour it immediately into the containers, glass with a lid preferable.
