Do you get super dry, chapped skin during the winter months!? Here’s a fantastic DIY remedy that can also promote healthier looking skin! As an alternative to lotions you buy in the store that are made mostly of water and cost us $$$, try this DIY natural remedy instead!
For essential oils to add I recommend lavender (for relaxation) and frankincense (helps promote even skin tones and healthier skin)! I use Young Living essential oils for their purity and their Seed to Seal commitment!
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut oil
- 1 cup solid cocoa butter
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 15 drops lavender essential oil
- 15 drops frankincense essential oil
