Instructions  

Bath & Body Lotion

 
 

Step 1

Clean and sanitize work area and equipment with a bleach solution (e.g. 1 tsp bleach to a 1 gallon of water) or with rubbing alcohol.

 

Step 2

Get all ingredients together so you do not have to leave in the middle of making your lotions..

   
 

Items Needed:

 

 

Note:  This method avoids human contact with the lotion and keeps it covered most of the time thus avoiding any airborne particles (dust) getting into the lotion.

  Step 3

Fill plastic bag with Body Lotion Base directly from the jug.  Be sure to weigh lotion to accurately calculate how much fragrance oil/scent to add. 

  Step 4

Add Bath & Body Dye a drop at a time.  Seal bag leaving as little air as possible.  Massage the bag to mix in the dye. Add more dye (if needed) to reach the desired color.

Note:  When dye is added, test to make sure it does not discolor skin.  If it does, too much dye has been added.

Step 6

When ingredients are mixed, and bottles are lined up, snip a small hole in the corner of the bag.
