Additional Tips:

  • You can adjust the consistency of these recipes based on your preference. Add more shea butter for a thicker balm or more aloe vera gel for a lighter lotion.
  • Always store homemade skincare products in a cool, dark place and use within 3 months.
  • If you have any concerns about using essential oils, consult a dermatologist or skip them altogether.

Important Note: Always do a patch test before applying any new product to your skin. Apply a small amount on your inner forearm and wait 24 hours to check for any irritation.
