Recipes for healthy skin ( skin care with coconut oil)


SKIN CARE RECIPES 

Coconut Bath Melts
This makes a great personal gift or just your own private bath time indulgence.




Equipment : 
Double boiler saucepan
Jug
Glass Bowl
Decorative molds - a decorative ice-cube tray is ideal. If you use a normal ice cube tray, you can consider cutting each mold into two.
Glass storage jar

Ingredients:
2 teaspoons of cocoa butter
2 teaspoons of coconut oil
2 teaspoons of sweet almond oil
1 teaspoon of jojoba oil
Approximately 6 drops of essential oil of your choice
This amount should fill one ice cube tray or equivalent

Heat water in the lower section of the double boiler, then melt cocoa butter and coconut oil and stir together in the top section. Stir gently until they are completely combined. Add the liqiud oils. Pour into the jug. Add essential oils to provide the desired scent. Fill each mold with the melted and scented oil, then place the tray in the fridge for a few hours until they are completely solid.
Store the bath melts in a glass jar in a cool cupboard. When you are ready for a soothing and refreshing bath, drop one or two bath melts into the running water.
