Time to the edge off and give yourself a well earned treat with these deliciously sensuous oils and balms that could not be easier to make.

Spikenard, Ylang Ylang and Neroli Revitalising Body Butter

Ingredients

30 ml of Jojoba oil

8 drops of Spikenard

Calms the heart
Stabilizes the mind
Settles the emotions

2 drops of Ylang ylang

Relaxing & sensual
Encourages feelings of peace and pleasure

2 drops of Neroli

Relaxes the nerves

To Make

Mix the oils together using the drop by drop technique.

Fill the cooking pot about one-fourth of the way with water and bring it to a low, simmering boil. Place the Pyrex measuring cup in the pot so the water heats the outside of it and the handle is hanging over the edge of the pot. Leaving the handle outside of the pot will prevent it from getting so hot that it burns your hand. The water shouldn’t be boiling so strongly that it splatters into the Pyrex cup. Add the beeswax to your Pyrex first. It will take the longest to melt since it’s the hardest ingredient. Once your beeswax is melted, add the jojoba. Stir with a glass stirring rod or the handle of a spoon. Add the cocoa butter and melt. Add the coconut oil and melt.

Pour the melted mixture into glass jars and add the essential oils. Seal the lid and allow to cool.

Directions

Use as desired.
