Hi Lori;

You might try cutting back on the almond oil and substituting mango butter

for the cocoa butter.

I have found that when I am making a lotion I can put in natrasorb to absorb

some of the oilness, perhaps you could add some to your lotion bar and keep

the same amount for the ingredients. I have also found that if I substitute

the mango butter for the shea in my lotion recipe it isn't greasy either.

The natrasorb is tapioca starch which is the same as tapioca flour, you can

get this at health food stores, Asian markets etc.

I have never used the natrasorb in a lotion bar.

The lotion bar recipe that I always is from Majestic Mountain Sage and was

created by

.

1.5 oz beeswax

1oz cocoa butter

1.5 oz shea butter

2 oz almond oil

1/4tsp vit. W.

Meltm mix and pour into any container. I use the roll up deodorant type

containers for my lotion bars.

I also use a citrus essential oil for the fragrance but that is optional.

The ounces in this recipe is by weight not measure.

I hope this will answer your question.

What is Vitamin W? Did you mean E? I made some Lotion bars this weekend and

they are wonderful!

Raven- Please be careful using citrus essential oils in a lotion as there may

be some photosensitivity issues. Just something to keep in mind.

I know it's probably been posted umpteen times, but could someone send me

the lotion bar recipe, pretty please? I need to make a basket tonight for

someone I work with, and won't have time to rummage through all my

materials. I REALLY need to get organized!!

Hi Listbuds;

I meant Vitamin E. I guess that My finger hit the W when I meant it to hit

the E. Sorry about the confusion.

The lotion bar recipe is listed below. It is one that I also make for my

sister and she says that it is helping the brown spots to go away from her

hands and arms.
