Sandalwood n' Spice Lotion Recipe
Lotion Quick Trick
Get a really good unscented body lotion.
Add 10 to 30 drops of your favorite essential oil or essential oil blend for every 8oz (250ml) of lotion. Some of my favorites are:
Relaxing Woodsy: 16 drops Sandalwood, 8 drops Lavender, 6 drops Cedar
Relaxing Floral: 14 drops Frankincense, 10 drops Lavender, 6 drops Rosewood
To Die For Chocolate: 30 drops Cocoa Absolute (This one doesn't need anything else!)
Why Make Your Own Homemade Lotion Recipes?
There's so much junk in most commercial skincare products.
The great thing about making your own aromatherapy lotion is that you decide exactly what goes into it.
And you can easily create your own formulations to support your specific skin type or skin problem (such as eczema or acne) by customizing your blend of
carrier oils, essential oils and other ingredients.
For example, vegetable glycerin is good for dry skin because it's a humectant (attracts moisture.)
And witch hazel is good for oily skin because it helps reduce oil production.

About 60 percent of what you rub onto your skin is absorbed into your body?

After you make your first batch, I bet you'll never go back to store lotions again!
