Shea butter
Video tutorial fail
So... I was recording this video of me doing my Shea butter cream but um when watching the video I realized that it stopped recording after like 1 min 😔.
I will share it with you anyway though!
You will need:
• fork, spoon, spatula, masher or whatever to mash the Shea butter smooth.
• hand mixer
• oil/-s of your choice, I used olive oil.
• raw Shea butter preferably organic too.
• container to store.
• a pipe bag or plastic bag that is cut into a pipe.
• rosemary oil to preserve it.
• Get ready for some mess lol
I start by mashing the Shea butter into a smooth lump less consistency. Then I put it into a mixing bowl and mix it for a few seconds.
I then add the oil/-s and mix it until I am satisfied with the consistency. Lastly I add some drops of rosemary oil and blend it.
This step is optional but it is a little easier and less messy then using your hands.
Put the cream into a plastic bag to one of the corners in the bag. Cut a piece off and fill your container.
I personally don't follow recipe when doing this but for the first time I would recommend you to do so. After a couple if times you will learn what's best for you.
I have made whipped Shea butter before but Shea cream works best for me.
Uses: You choose! I use this for skin mainly but sometimes I use it on my hair too. For example to smooth my hair the times when I'm not looking for slickness that gel gives.
Adjust it for your needs and likings. 1 thing to know, raw Shea butter stinks! If it doesn't stink then it's not real lol.
Notes: Shea butter is good for psoriasis, eczema, dry skin and more. It can also be used in the LOC method and in hair treatments.
I buy 150g and divide into two pieces. One 1/2 gives me about 140-150 ml of the finished product. It lasts me about a month and that's after full body use everyday.
All the ingredients are bought in stockholm, Sweden. Let me know if you have any questions.
