by Harvest McCampbell

Ingredients:
1/4 cup of Naturally Native Massage Oil
1/2 teaspoon liquid lecithin
1/2 cup aloe vera juice or gel
essential oils of sassafras, spruce, cedar and wintergreen

Supplies:
large funnel
1 8-ounce jar with air-tight lid
1 4-ounce jar with air-tight lid
measuring cup
measuring spoons

Step 1 - Make the Oil/Lecithin Blend
Mix 1/4 cup of Naturally Native Massage Oil in a 4-ounce jar and blend in 1/2 teaspoon liquid lecithin. Shake well to emulsify. Label the jar “Naturally Native Oil/Lecithin Blend.”

Step 2 - Mix the Lotion
In an 8-ounce jar mix three teaspoons Naturally Native Oil/Lecithin Blend, one tablespoon glycerin, 1/2 cup aloe vera juice or gel, and one drop each of wintergreen, sassafras, spruce and cedar essential oils. Shake until emulsified. It should have a creamy consistency that does not separate into globules of oil and liquid lecithin.
