DIY Scented Beauty – Cocoa Butter Massage Bar

This is as easy as making melt and pour soap.  I found cute molds at A.C. Moore.  My favorite molds either are small and fit easily into the palm of the hand, or those with ‘nubs’ for really massaging well.  A solid massage bar is an easy and convenient way to give or get a good massage.  I know you want to give your sweetie an extra sweet treat for Valentine’s day,  and this is an easy way to do it.  They really need to cure for one week so they don’t melt all over when you try to use them.   You will need:

1/2 cup cocoa butter

1/8 teaspoon vitamin E oil

1 tablespoon coconut oil

23-25 drops of your favorite essential oils or a blend of oils

1 massage bar mold or any favorite mold

Melt the cocoa butter over very low heat and add the coconut oil. Remove and add the remaining ingredients. Stir well and add to your mold. Let harden and remove from mold. Place in the freezer to quicken the hardening. Keep in a cool place. Let cure 1 week before use.
