Light & Luscious Souffle 1


It is blackberry season for us and I have been enjoying the wonderful blackberries that I’ve purchased. Since our weather is changing, I decided that I needed to make a light lotion for the fall. I decided to make the Light & Luscious Body Souffle.

What is a souffle? A light, fluffy baked dish made with egg yolks and beaten egg whites combined with various other ingredients and served as a main dish or sweetened as a dessert. This lotion is definitely light and as a bonus, calorie free!

White Cocoa Butter
Water

Containers for the finished lotion

Recipe:
9 grams Stearic Acid
22 grams Emulsifying Wax
9 grams Liquid Glycerin
46 grams Golden Jojoba Oil
20 grams Avocado Butter
15 grams Kukui Oil
5 grams Vitamin E Acetate
10 grams White Cocoa Butter
813 grams distilled water
2 grams Silk Powder
9.45 grams Germaben II
5.5 millimeters Blackberry Sage Fragrance Oil
Purple Raspberry Color

Weigh all ingredients except Germaben II and Blackberry Sage Fragrance Oil into the microwave safe container. Heat in the microwave using short time bursts until everything is melted. Blend using the immersion blender. Add Germaben II and Blackberry Sage Fragrance Oil once the temperature drops below 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Blend until completely mixed. I like to add the color at this point to help me determine if I have mixed all of the ingredients together. Pour the mixed lotion into the containers.

Since this is a fluid lotion, I filled the 1 oz LDPE bottles for this post and then capped the bottles with the Black Disk Tops to match as samples to go out in orders. Fill what ever size bottles you desire.

Enjoy!

About Andee

Director of Happiness. I'm a thirty-something soap snob. I've grown up with handmade soaps, and I love them! I really like making lotions, soaps, and perfumes. I adore mixing scents to come up with something new. My favorite scent is either Wicked or Cotton Candy. I tend to hoard fragrances, I even have an Earl Grey Tea from the MMS catalog. I won't tell you how old it is, but it sure is good!
