What you need before starting:

  • Medium-sized bowl
  • Whisk to mix
  • Table spoon
  • Tea spoon

Ingredients and proportions:

  • 2 tablespoons of Aloe Vera gel
  • 2 tablespoons of Shea Butter
  • 1 teaspoon of Coconut Oil
  • 5 drops of lavander essential oil if you want to perfume your recipe (optional)

Easy peasy steps to follow:

Drop two tablespoons of Shea Butter in your bowl. Add one teaspoon of coconut oil in the same bowl. Blend and lightly melt Shea Butter and coconut oil for easier blend. 

Once the mixture is homogeneous, add the two tablespoons of Aloe Vera gel.

If you want to perfume your recipe, you can add 5 drops of lavander essential oil. Essential oils should be handled with care, we advise you to refer to the precautions for use.

Finally, take a small amount of the preparation and apply to your body. Repeat as many times as necessary.

For better results, you should apply it after being exposed to the sun on clean and dry skin.

This homemade after sun recipe moisturizes and repairs your skin thanks to the allantoin present in Shea Butter, which, beyond its soothing properties is very restorative. Its action is supported by Aloe Vera, which is ideal for calming and repairing red or burned skins while providing a pleasing-to-apply gelly texture.
