Lotion Bars. In the winter, even though we don’ Lotion Bars.In the winter, even though we don’t live where it’s super cold, we have cold dry air and our hands get very coarse. I love lotion bars! They nourish the skin and keep it from becoming over dry and cracking. They are made with olive oil, Shea butter, and beeswax and EO of your choice.Instructions:In a medium heat safe container on a scale weigh out 3.5 ounces of olive oil and 2.5 ounces of beeswax. Melt in 30 second bursts until melted. Add 3.5 ounces of Shea butter into the hot oil and stir until melted. Add your essential oil and fully incorporate. Pour into a mold and allow to cool for 4-24 hours.My apologies in advance for all the photos. I don’t know what is more fun making the crafts or taking the photos. I might’ve gone overboard, but oh well. Now that my kids are older and I can’t take pictures of them, so I take pictures of crafts and food.
Yesterday, I had a couple kids come over to make h Yesterday, I had a couple kids come over to make handmade soap. This is such a simple and fun activity. In this past year we have been encouraged to wash our hands consistently, but as a result many are experiencing dry rough cracked skin.I was thumbing through a vintage Martha Stewart magazine recently and came across a soap-making article. I thought it would be fun to create small soaps for home use and gifts.To make the soap begin with a soap base. We chose a white soap base, but you could also use a glycerin soap base. For color, cleansing, and health benefits we also added Fullers earth powder and/or French gray clay. Fullers Earth Powder is also known as Indian healing clay and it is a rich source of magnesium. It has properties that absorb excessive oil from the skin. It also can make your skin feel soft and smooth. It improves blood circulation and ads glow to the skin. Another benefit is it helps control acne and reduces blemishes.I love the color of French green clay. It assists in absorbing toxins from the skin. It is highly recommended for oily and acne prone skin as it removes excess of oil and toxins.The kids liked the bumblebee silicone mold we used, but you can also use the base of a carton or any other form.We added a few drops of Balance essential oil for scent.I know this is a simple soap beginning, but I look forward to more projects. Have you ever made soap before?
