Complete Recipe & Ingredient Benefits

Ingredients:

• Shea Butter: 40g (1.4 oz)
• Shea Oil: 20ml (0.7 fl oz)
• Essential Oil (optional): 2-3 drops total
• Recommended Essential Oils: Lavender (calming, antimicrobial), helichrysum (exceptional skin healing properties), or chamomile (anti-inflammatory, soothing) can enhance the therapeutic benefits.
• **Essential Oils to AVOID: Peppermint, clove, or cinnamon should never be used on sensitive, damaged skin as they may cause increased sensitivity or irritation.

Simple Instructions:

1. Gently warm the shea butter in a heat-safe bowl using a double boiler method until just soft enough to mix (avoid overheating)
2. Remove from heat and slowly stir in the shea oil until completely incorporated
3. Allow the mixture to cool slightly before adding essential oils if desired
4. Continue stirring as it cools to achieve a smooth, uniform consistency
5. Transfer to a clean, sterilized container and store in a cool, dry place

Ingredient Benefits:

• Shea Butter: Creates a breathable moisture barrier without clogging pores. Contains natural vitamins that nourish and protect sensitive skin. Anti-inflammatory properties help reduce existing irritation. Non-greasy formula that won't interfere with diaper absorption.
• Shea Oil: Lightweight yet deeply penetrating for maximum absorption. Rich in vitamins A, E, and F to support tissue repair. Contains oleic acid that helps to improve skin permeability. Gentle enough for the most sensitive, damaged skin.
