Equipment

  • 1 stand mixer , or a bowl and hand mixer
  • 1 rubber spatula
  • 1 8 ounce mason jar

Ingredients

  • ½ cup shea butter
  • 2- ½ tablespoons Apricot Kernel Oil
  • 2- ½ tablespoons argan oil
  • 1 teaspoon non nano zinc oxide
  • 5 drops carrot seed essential oil
  • 5 drops frankincense essential oil
  • 5 drops geranium essential oil
  • 5 drops lavender essential oil

Instructions

  • Whip shea with a hand or stand mixer until it is smooth before adding any oils.
    1/2 cup shea butter
  • Slowly add the apricot kernel oil and argan oil while mixing.
    2- 1/2 tablespoons Apricot Kernel Oil, 2- 1/2 tablespoons argan oil
  • Add zinc oxide and stir with a spoon so that it doesn't go into the air. Then add essential oils and whip with the hand or stand mixer until fluffy.
    1 teaspoon non nano zinc oxide, 5 drops carrot seed essential oil, 5 drops frankincense essential oil, 5 drops geranium essential oil, 5 drops lavender essential oil

Notes

If you'd like to increase the spf, you can add up to 2 Tablespoons of non-nano zinc oxide total. Note that it will need to be rubbed in for the white to disappear at that level, but that only takes a few seconds.
