Vanilla and Tonka Bean Body Cream

I made Body Cream yesterday and it turned out to be wonderful.







I used the following ingredients:
45ml Water
25g Olive Butter
25g Shea Butter
25g Cocoa Butter
25g Macadamia Nut Butter
25ml Almond Oil
25ml Wheatgerm Oil
25ml Rosehip Oil
Polysorbate 80
Vitamin E
Vanilla and Tonka Bean Fragrance Oil
Preservative
1) I melted the butters in a double boiler
2) I added the melted butters to the oils
3) I added water and Polysorbate 80
4) After everything cooled down a bit, I added the Vitamin E, Fragrance Oil and Preservative

It took quite long to harden out and I only whipped it today.
It is not greasy at all and sinks into the skin straight away.

This is seriously wonderful stuff. :)

I have also received the shea butter now and as promised, there is also a picture.

It's white and very creamy and both products are available on my homepage now. :)

Cocoa Butter Pellets

It happened, I have found the perfect product which is now officially the first item that my company 'The Craft Lab Ltd' is about to sell.

Organic Refined Cocoa Butter in pellet form! What a genius concept right?
I fell in love with the pellet form straight away. It is so easy to dose and the butter looks and smells just like white chocolate.

Besides that, the quality is amazing. I really am very happy to be able to offer such good quality to my customers.
I will also sell them as non organic and I was able to secure Organic Refined Shea Butter with the same amazing quality.

Pictures of the Shea Butter will follow next week!
