How to make Homemade Lotion

Some people love organic stuff. They'll go out and look hard for stuff that's completely green and organic and pay big bucks for those. To some people though, that isn't the ultimate in what you can do for the health of your family and the health of the environment. For that, you have to go a step further and fill your home with homemade products. It's greener because this way, you don't contribute anything to the unnecessary transportation or packaging that already goes on. For instance, let's try to learn how to make homemade lotion now.

This isn't a process this difficult. It's just messy. As you learn how to make homemade lotion, do prepare yourself for the mess involved.

Let's go over the ingredients list you'll need to be prepared with. Get coconut oil or sweet almond oil, pure beeswax, olive oil, pure water, Borax, and essential oils.

Using coconut oil for your homemade lotion can be a great idea for the winter. This is oil that turns solid once the weather becomes even slightly cool. The moment it turns slightly warm, it melts and really sinks into the skin wonderfully. Beeswax is a wonderful emulsifier. It acts as a skin barrier and protects you skin. Olive oil is a good smooth bearer of skin nutrition, and almond oil can make lotion stay on the skin for longer.

Now that weve worked through a nice explanation of our ingredients the way the makers of skin products scream in their advertisements about how their products contain "olive oil to enrich your skin", let's take a closer look at how we put all of this stuff together to make something that's recognizable as lotion.

You need an ounce of beeswax to start with. You can usually get beeswax in granulated form. If you can get this, it'll make your work a lot easier. You need to accurately weigh out 4 ounces each of olive oil, coconut oil, a cup of water and a quarter teaspoonful of Borax.

Your first step would be to throw all of the stuff (except the water and the Borax) together in a glass bowl, place the glass bowl in a pot of boiling water on the stove, and heat away. It'll take the whole thing several minutes of boiling to melt. Now while this is happening, you need to pick up the water, dissolve the Borax well in it, and keep it ready.

Now get a large blender jar, and throwall of the boiling oil in the jar. It would be better if you had a metal blender jar because all of this is going to be quite hot. When you run the blender, the oils will slowly begin to blend. Trickle the water in through the top of the jar as the blender runs and watch as the oil and the water begin to blend into a lotion-like thin white paste.

And then, your lotion is done. The great thing about learning how to make homemade lotion is that even if it gets messy, you just have to rub it all over your arms and legs. It's lotion!
