Off Stearic Acid

  • Place the mixture in a hot water bath until the waxes are completely melted and remove from heat.
  • Place the rose hydrosol in a separate glass cup and warm for 15 minutes in a hot water bath.
  • After stirring the oils/waxes together to make sure they are evenly combined, begin stirring the oil/wax mixture with an electric mixer on medium speed and add the hydrosol as you stir.
  • Mixture will begin to thicken as you blend it. Continue mixing until Coconut Rose Body Whip thickens to a buttery consistency. This should take about 5-10 minutes at most.
  • Pour the product into clean jars and allow too cool before capping. Keeping it in the fridge between uses will also extend shelf life. You can add the preservative of your choice to this product by following the preservative manufacturer's instructions for use. If you do not use a preservative, your cream might only last up to 2 weeks. Enjoy!!
