Melt first three ingredients in a double-boiler (A pyrex measuring cup in a pot of boiling water works great.)Once all ingredients are melted, remove from heat and cool for an hour.Mix essential oils for your skin type into the aloe vera gel.Slowly add the aloe mixture into the oil mixture and use a hand blender to whip until desired consistency.Store in a container.*Citrus oils cause photosensitivity, I use this mix of oils in fall/winter months.*I also like to double this recipe, as I use more lotion in the cooler months.
