How to Make Lotion with Essential Oils?

Lotions made with essential oils are luxurious products. As you know, they smell amazing. Plus, they come packed with numerous benefits for your skin. Though these high-end creams and body butters are good for your skin, they come with hefty price tags. Wouldn’t you rather like to use some natural product made by you at home? With the use of Morerich Essential Oil by Meeth, you can create your own Morerich Essential Lotion. 

The skin benefits of essential oils

Did you know that applying essential oil-based lotions directly on your skin can yield even greater benefits than applying regular lotions? However, it is advised to apply essential oils after diluting since sometimes it may lead to allergic reactions. However, lotions made using essential oils do not cause allergic reactions due to being infused with natural elements. Accordingly, making your own Morerich Essential Lotions is the perfect way to directly apply them to the skin safely and gently.

How to make your lotion

Lotion-making is quite simple. It comes together in a few minutes with every few pieces of equipment. To make a small batch of lotion, you can start mixing Morerich essential oil with two or three other essential oils (coconut oil, liquid carrier oil, olive oil, almond oil, etc.) and beeswax (an emulsifier). If you are good with using coconut butter or shea butter, then add that as well. Then double boil it and allow the steam from the water to gently melt and combine your ingredients. Stir occasionally until the ingredients are fully melted and combined.

There are similar methods to create DIY essential oils-based lotions. It’s more like a Hogwarts potion experiment. It’s just a little playtime with proportions and elements of beauty!

Preserving your lotion

While making your own lotion at home sound attractive, their short life makes preservation a crucial necessity. When you think about preserving your lotion, there are two things to consider first. They are:

  1. Microbial growth
  2. Oxidation

Microbial growth means contamination caused by bacteria and mold. Though refrigerating may sound suitable to lengthen shelf life, bacteria and mold may still be able to contaminate it with time. One thing to do is add some natural preservatives such as Rokonsa. 

Oxidation means the chemical process where sensitive ingredients including essential oils degrade after exposure to air. By adding some Vitamin E, you can prevent the oxidation of your essential lotion.
