Shea Butter Soap Recipe Preparation

Take a pot and fill half of the pot with water.

Add shea butter, rice bran oil, cocoa butter, wax, and xanthan gum in a bowl.

Place this bowl inside the pot. Melt the ingredients for approximately 20 minutes.

Take the pot away from stove.

Add rosewater, honey, sunflower oil, vitamin E oil, and essential rose oil into the mixture.

Combine all the ingredients.

Place the mixture in fridge for 5 or 10 minutes.

Whip all the ingredients until you obtain creamy form.

Pour the mixture in a clean container.

If you have double boiler, you can skip the first step. Instead, you will place shea butter, rice bran oil, cocoa butter, vax and xanthan gum in the double boiler. Also, you can omit xanthan gum and sunflower oil. This is a bit professional level shea butter soap recipe. So, when you take those two ingredients out, you will have easy to prepare recipe.

Another think you should consider is the essential oil. You can use essential lavender oil or rose geranium or any type of essential oil. Since some people are allergic to certain essential oils, it is better to pick your own oil. This way you will have the perfect shea butter lotion for skin.
