I hope I'm asking this in the right place..
I'm wanting to make a lotion bar for myself and have never sonera it before. I read that a good starting point is 1/3 butters 1/3 soft oil 1/3 beeswax. With that in mind, I was thinking 1/3 mango butter 1/3 sweet almond oil 1/3 beeswax. But I also have cocoa butter and sunflower oil to play with. Which would be best?
I chose mango because I read that its less greasy and more quickly absorbed. Would sao or sunflower oil be less greasy?
I'm wanting to make a lotion bar because I've been washing my hands so much recently that my knuckles are starting to split because the skin is so dry.
Thank you in advance!
