DIY 3 Ingredient Lotion Recipe
You'll Need:
- 1/3 cup shea butter
- 1/3 cup coconut oil
- 10 drops lavender essential oil
- 5 drops chamomile essential oil (optional)
Directions:
- In a microwave safe bowl, melt the shea butter in 30 seconds increments until completely melted.
- Pour into a mixing bowl, and add in the coconut oil. The coconut oil should be in a solid or soft state, but not melted!
- Use a hand mixer or a stand mixture to whip the two oils together until stiff peaks form. This will usually take several minutes.
- Add in your essential oils and mix once more.
- Scoop your new DIY 3 ingredient lotion into a clean, airtight jar or container.
- Use as often as needed!
As always, before using this lotion, make sure to test a small patch on your skin! This lotion smells absolutely amazing, and you'll quickly get addicted to putting it on!

What if I don’t have the semisolid coconut oil? Can I use the liquid coconut oil? Pls reply
If you use liquid, you won’t be able to make a whipped lotion. Just place your liquid coconut oil in the fridge for a few hours and it should get to the perfect semi-solid state 🙂
