Self Tanning Lotion
A whipped, moisturizing self tanning lotion made with coconut oil, shea butter, and cocoa powder for a natural sun-kissed glow without chemicals. Makes 2 ounces.
Materials
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 2 tbsp shea butter
- 1/2 tbsp cocoa powder or mica powder
- 5 drops essential oils optional
Instructions
- Whip up the shea butter until nice and creamy.
- Slowly add in the coconut oil until all combined.
- Then, add in your cocoa powder or mica powder until the color is to your liking.
- If you are adding essential oils, add and whip one more time.
Notes
- I found that cocoa powder gives a deeper color than mica powder.
- You will want your lotion to look dark, but it won’t go on as dark as how it looks. Adjust to your liking.
