A couple tips:

If you do not have the proper set up for a double boiler, you can place a large mason jar in a pan of water over medium heat.
If you live in a warmer climate, it may need to be kept in the fridge. Under 75° should be fine.

What You Will Need:

1/2 cup shea butter
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/4 cup sweet almond oil
2 vitamin E capsules
15-20 drops lavender essential oil (I use this brand)

What You Will Do:

Combine shea butter, coconut oil, sweet almond oil and vitamin e in a double boiler.
Stir continuously over medium heat until all of the ingredients are melted and well combined.
Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Mix in Lavender essential oil.
Transfer the mixture to the fridge and allow time to set. About an hour.
Using a hand mixer, whip for 10 minutes until light and fluffy.
Return to the fridge for an additional 10-15 minutes to set.
Store it in a glass jar with a lid. I like to use a half pint mason jar.
