    • Didn’t you say you lived in Florida? Lucky you with all that moisture in the air! Here it is like a dessert in the winter as far as moisture in the air. I have to lotion from head to toe twice a day.

      • I have relatively few wrinkles and no crows feet. It might be good genes. I also don’t wear war paint. That might have something to do with it.

  3. It looks amazing! Do you melt the shea butter, because it tends to be gritty? Also the coconut oil when you measure it, do you pack it in? Here in NY it’s still hard.

    • Hi Dee! No, I don’t melt the shea because the brand I use isn’t gritty. If you click on it in the recipe it will take you to the brand link. And I would say yes, I packed the coconut oil in as much as possible. If you set your tub on top of a heat register or in the bathroom while you shower it should warm up enough to soften the coconut oil and make it easier to measure. Thanks for stopping by and commenting! 🙂
