Mango Butter Light Lotion and Cream Recipe

This is a simple and non-greasy recipe.

Yield: This makes approx 32 ounces

Ingredients:

Gently melt together:
60 grms mango butter
32 grms emulsifying wax
1 tsp vitamin e t-50

Directions:

(1) Gently warm to about 130 degrees: 600 grms distilled water or herbal tea of your choice. 200 grms aloe vera gel-try walmart "fruit of the earth", works great! 28 grams honeyquat from Wholesales Supplies Plus (http://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/).

(2) Slowly pour oil into water while using hand whisk or stick blender. Be gentle in order not to make a lot of foam.

(3) Stir for a few minutes, let rest for 10 minutes, then stir again, until room temp.

(4) Add germaben (preservative) according to product specifications.

(5) Add essential oils or fragrance. (Author note: I personally love a light touch of cantaloupe fragrance oil ).

(6) Add coloring if desired. (Author note: I like an orangey-pink melon.)

Suggestion: To make a thicker batch to put in jars, use less water. try using 300 grms-400 grms. It all depends on your taste.
