Stawberry Hand Lotion - sort of...


Today I made lotion, or more specifically hand lotion. I made a modest batch of 50g since it was a new recipe based on the “Basic dry feeling hand or body lotion” from swiftcraftymonkeys e-book (it’s also on the website). Unfortunately it didn’t turn out so well but it wasn’t a complete failure so I thought I’d share the process. Side note: it ended up in this bottle because I had nothing else to store it in.

Fragrance oil haul

Today I received two packages of fragrance oils, one from E-essentials and one The Soap Kitchen. From EE I got “Vanilla”, “Watermelon” and “Plum” and from TSK “Shea buttermilk”, “Cotton flower”, “Grapefruit Sorbet” and “Chocolate fragrance”. So I got 7 FOs in total to play and experiment with.
