Ingredients

1 Cup Sunflower Oil
1 Cup Coconut Oil
1/2 Cup Shea Butter
1/2 Cup Beeswax
1/2 Cup Cocoa Butter

Directions

Measure out the solid ingredients, the shea butter, beeswax, and cocoa butter, and combine them in a heatproof glass container. Heat for 1 minute in a double boiler.

Stir the ingredients together so the oily cocoa butter mixes with the beeswax and shea butter.

Now add the oils.

Finally, separate into two containers and keep them warm so you can make the Belly Balm and Foot Cream.
