Make your own Whipped Super Rich Body Lotion/Hair Cream
I have posted something similar a long time ago (link here), around the time when I first started my blog. Anyway this is the easiest thing ever to make, it is basically a whipped Shea Butter mix. I would recommend this if you have dry skin (or as a foot/hand cream on normal skin) or as a hair cream/leave in for people with afro hair texture or generally dry hair.
Ps. Guys my camera is still broken (Hence the iPhone 4s pictures)

What you need:
- Shea Butter or African Butter (the yellow one)
- A carrier oil
- An electric whisk/mixer
Optional:
- Essential Oils- Suggestions: Lavender (Calming), Peppermint Oil (Soothing, good for itchy scalp (, Tea Tree Oil (Anti Bacterial), Rosemary Oil (Stimulate hair follicles-promotes hair growth) or Sweet Orange Oil (Smells aa-mazing)
- Aloe Vera Gel
- Water (But then you need to use a preservative)
Directions: Put all of your ingredients into a mixing bowl and start whisking. I whisk my Shea Butter when it's hard but you might want to melt it for a few seconds in the microwave to soften it before.
Will you be trying this out? Have you tried it? Share your links or recipes?
