DIY Shea Butter Moisturizing Creme

Hey there!

After watching Naptural85's YouTube vid, I decided to do a similar version of my own Shea Butter moisturizing creme based on what I had in my cabinet at the time.

I use Shea Moisture products religiously, but making my own from a 100 percent unrefined Shea Butter and extra virgin oils is like making your very own gelato from freshly picked fruits instead of getting store-bought ice-cream. They both taste amazing, but you are certain of its contents, and in this case, "natural" means just that.

So, in my cabinet I had 8oz of  unrefined Shea butter, extra virgin coconut oil, extra virgin olive oil and Tea Tree Oil. (Naptural85 used castor oil, jojoba oil, coconut oil, olive oil and Vitamin E.)

So I added all 8 oz of Shea butter, one tablespoon of olive oil, four tablespoons of  coconut oil and one tablespoon of tea tree oil and whisked it my blender.

That was it! (Next time, I plan to add peppermint oil for to add fragrance and to stimulate the scalp.)

Then, after co-washing with my regular conditioner, I couldn't wait to apply it in my two-strand twist. I also made another batch using equal oil to Shea butter ratio for thinner daily moisturizer.














I had planned to do a twist-out, but I decided to keep it twisted for a few days. :) :)




Okay. Thanks friends. 'Til next time. Take care.
