Solid Lotion Mango Bars
Solid Lotion Mango Bars
From the blogger: "For an exceptional moisturizing experience, I highly suggest trying out my mango butter body lotion bar recipe - it's simply the best! They are easy to make, and you only need a few things! This recipe will make 9 bars (if you fill each cavity of the mold ⅓-½ full). These would make a great gift for that special someone! Whether it's a birthday, anniversary, Mother's Day, Father's Day, graduation, or any other celebration, a luxurious lotion bar is a gift that everyone will appreciate!"

Instructions
-
Add shea butter and beeswax to a heat-safe dish and heat in the microwave on high for 1 minute. Remove and stir well. Repeat 1-minute heating sessions until the beeswax is completely melted

Add mica powder and fragrance oil. Stir very well
-
Pour into mold filling 9 of the mold cavities ⅓-½ full
-
These bars will set in about 5-10 minutes, and you will see the color change as they harden
-
Leave in the mold for about 1 hour so that they can become completely solid
-
Carefully turn the mold upside down and press the bottom of the lotion bar out of the mold
-
You can keep these in your bathroom or in the fridge and take them out as soon as you are going to use them
