How to make homemade Body Lotion

OK, listen up, This one you do not Eat!!

Body lotions can be very expensive, but there is no reason why you shouldn't be able to make your own homemade body lotions. You won't be putting a dent in your wallet or purse, and you can give your creations as gifts!
First, purchase a big bottle of vegetable glycerin. This is great because it's water soluble and it's hypoallergenic, so you won't have to worry about anyone getting adverse reactions to your homemade lotions. You can purchase this at your local nutrition shop, or you can buy it online.
When you have your glycerin, you can mix it with any type of essential oil that smells good to you and that has the properties you need. For instance, sweet almond oil has many vitamins and minerals, including vitamin E. Citronella oil is great for arthritis, joint pain, headaches, etc. Lavender essential oil is great for calming and soothing the mind and body. Whichever essential oil you choose, make sure that it will go well with the skin.
Purchase a big jar of cocoa butter. This is especially concentrated in vitamin E, so it's great for the skin. Melt about 1/2 ounce of cocoa butter for each recipe that you make. You can mix the cocoa butter with some type of oil, such as jojoba or virgin coconut oil, and then making it fragrant by adding a couple of drops of essential oil. You can also add other miscellaneous extracts, such as vanilla. Be creative but make sure that all the ingredients are suitable for the skin.
Purchase thick oils, such as sweet almond oil or virgin coconut oil. Try to purchase the ones which are unhydrogenated, because these are cold-pressed and the least processed. These oils are especially great moisturizers, so they will work well with the skin. Mix these oils up with a teaspoon or so of real honey, and a little bit of flower extract or any essential oil.
Once you make your recipes, make sure that you store them in air-tight containers. You can buy some online which are specially made for cosmetic purposes, but you can use other household containers, too, as long as they are sterile (boil them first) and can be closed tightly. Store these homemade lotions in your fridge or somewhere cool.
