This looks awesome! I’ve been questioning lotion’s ingredients lately and I found this right on time! I know you said the rosemary or tea tree oil help preserve it. About how long is a batch good for?

Hey Savvy,

I made this yesterday without the coconut,rosemary and palm oils coz I didn’t have them. Thank you so much for putting this up. After a full day and sleeping, my skin has lost it’s serpent-like scales and still looks moisturized. Was worried that it would leave grease marks on my clothes but ………nada!

I use a mix of 1 part shea butter, 3/4 part aloe vera gel and 1 tsp of honey. I love it on my hair and skin. A little goes a long way so it lasts for ever.I love being a mixtress!
