Peppermint Salt Glow Formulation (Recipe)

Submitted By:

Pamela

Summary:

Great for pedicures!

Ingredients:

4 oz shea butter
4 oz aloe butter
4 oz fractionated coconut oil
.75-1 cup dead sea salt (medium)
.75-1 cup epsom salt
1.5 teaspoon peppermint essential oil
1.5 teaspoon polysorbate 20

Instructions:

I've had this work in the microwave, but for best results melt shea butter to 175 degrees on double boiler for 20 min, remove from heat. Cool to about 130 degrees. Add aloe butter, stirring until blended. Add the fractionated coconut oil. Cool to room temp but do not let mixture solidify. Mix essential oil and polysorbate 20 and add to oils. Add 3/4 c of each salt. Gently mix, package and finish cooling (in the fridge if you're in a hurry). You may need to add a bit more salt if mix seems gloppy. You may want to preserve with a couple of drops of liquapar oil. Super for pedicures!
