Wow beautiful ❤️ thanks

[@courtneylavender4111]

Thanks for sharing! What do you think is the shelf life on this lotion?

[@SummerRainDIY]

This should be good for 1-2 years depending on how fresh the ingredients are. Here is a video about shelf life czcams.com/video/9cxcUBMiOJM/video.htmlsi=UF_hl89OeiyeXyFY

Hey, thank you for these steps im going to try this one also..i have a question, i followed the steps of your body butter and mines came out perfect the first time but when i did it the second time my body butter was grainy... Now do i pour my oil phase directly in to the water as soon as they come off the heat? Or do i let them cool before adding them together? Also i think i add the water to the oil which made it clump
Does the order matter? Oil inti water or water into oil?

[@SummerRainDIY]

The key is to add the oil and the water when they are roughly the same temperature. I pull them off the double boiler and add immediately. I add the water into the oil.
