Why You’ll Love This Cream

  • Chamomile’s soothing properties help calm irritation and redness.
  • Shea butter and coconut oil deeply moisturize and protect the skin.
  • Beeswax forms a barrier to lock in moisture, perfect for dry hands.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup chamomile-infused oil (instructions below)
  • 1/4 cup shea butter
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tbsp beeswax pellets
  • 10–15 drops chamomile essential oil
  • 5 drops vitamin E oil (optional, for added nourishment)

Instructions for the Hand Cream

  1. Melt the Ingredients:
    • In a heat-safe bowl, combine the shea butter, coconut oil, and beeswax pellets.
    • Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) and stir until completely melted.
  2. Add Chamomile Oil:
    • Once melted, remove the bowl from heat and stir in the chamomile-infused oil.
  3. Add Essential Oils and Vitamin E:
    • Let the mixture cool slightly (not solidified), then add the chamomile essential oil and vitamin E oil.
  4. Whip or Mix:
    • For a fluffy texture, whip the mixture with a hand mixer until creamy. This step is optional but creates a light, luxurious consistency.
  5. Store in a Jar:
    • Transfer the cream into a clean, dry jar with a lid. Label it for easy identification.

How to Use

  • Massage a small amount of cream onto your hands daily or as needed.
