  • equal parts coconut oil and shea butter together in a double boiler (if you don’t know what that means, just do it in the microwave)
  • add in about an equal amount in g of arrowroot flour and stir so there are no clumps
  • add in any essential oils if you want a specific scent!
  • pour into vessel and keep in fridge to firm up

depending on the temperature, you might need more/less of the ingredients. in the winter, I find I need less arrowroot, as the arrowroot will make it more firm, the oil/butter more soft. feel free to play around with the ratios until it’s a consistency you like!

 

all the ingredients are fairly easy to find low/no plastic packaging, and organic fairtrade etc.
