Botanical cream
(Makes 200g)
Ingredients:
Water Phase
115g water
Oil Phase
20g conditioner pellets
15g organic shea butter
10g pracaxi oil
5g argan oil
5g meadowfoam oil
Last Phase
2g preservative (Geogard 221)
2g each rose geranium & ylang ylang essential oils
Method:
In separate pots heat both Water Phase and Oil Phase to 65°C. (Make sure the emulsifier in the Oil Phase is completely melted, Oil Phase may heat faster and need to be taken off the heat to cool to 65°C while Water Phase catches up.)
When both are at 65°C pour Oil Phase into Water Phase and blend until thick.
It won't thicken until it cools to around 40°C.
Add Last Phase and blend again.
Spoon into jar/jars.
