1
rubber spatula
1
8 ounce mason jar

cup

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.
