Directions:
NOTE: If you are making these products for sale, good manufacturing practices recommend you wear a hairnet, gloves and a mask. We also recommend a clean apron and workspace.
- **We used 64 ounces of beer and 8 oz. of water to make this recipe. You can use more water and less beer or equal amounts of both. Can easily be cut in half if batch is too large.
- Measure beer and pour into a glass bowl. Let sit out overnight or until beer becomes flat.
- Measure beer and water and add to a large glass mixing bowl. Set aside.
- To second large microwave-safe measuring cup, add stearic acid, emulsifying wax, soy butter, chamomile butter, babassu oil and macadamia butter. Heat in microwave for 3 minutes or until wax has completely melted.
- Heat beer/water mixture for 2 minutes in microwave. Slowly pour water into wax/oil mixture.
- Stick blend mix for 1-2 minutes. Set bowl in refrigerator for 30-60 minutes to cool.
- Stir mixture, scraping sides with spatula. Stick blend for a few minutes. Lotion should have thickened.
- Add Rosemary Oleoresin Extract (ROE), fragrance and preservative to lotion mix and stir with spatula. Then, continue to stick blend until fully incorporated.
- Fill bottles to 8 oz. each by weight. If lotion is too thick to pour, scoop lotion into a pastry or zip close bag and pipe the lotion into your bottles. Allow lotion to completely cool.
- Trim dip tubes to fit bottles and apply.
- Label product accordingly.
To Use: Apply to skin as often as desired.
