Renee HarrisMay 31, 2012

You’ll need:

.75 oz beeswax

2 oz coconut oil

8 oz liquid oil like olive oil or almond oil

2 TBS zinc oxide

Instructions: Using a double boiler, combine the beeswax, coconut oil and liquid oil and melt the ingredients together. Remove from heat. Add zinc oxide and blend using a stick blender. Pour into container(s) and wait until set before using.

Clean up is important! While everything is very hot, wipe out all equipment using paper towels until all lotion is removed. Then scrub in hot, soapy water.
