Hydrating Body Butter Sticks Project
If your skin is extremely dry, lotion bars work wonders. These body butter sticks are made with a combination of nourishing avocado butter, sweet almond oil, and oat oil. White beeswax helps them harden and protects the skin. They're lightly scented with Cashmere Fragrance Oil. With notes of white magnolia and violet, it’s perfect for leave-on products.
The balm is poured into twist tubes. They’re easy to use – first ensure the clear cap at the top is in place, then secure it by twisting on the top firmly. Flip the tube over and pour the mixture into the hole in the bottom. Allow to cool, and then secure the bottom with the base.
Allow the body butter to cool and harden for several hours or up to overnight before removing the clear cap. If it's removed too early, it could stick. When you’re ready to use, twist up the body butter and apply to dry skin.
