Help Me Jesus!

 As if I did not learn already, I saw another recipe online ( I spend way too much time on the internets)  I saw another shea butter mix and needed to try it. I have been hearing a lot about shealoe and read on UrbanBushBabes the benefits of shealoe and went with their recipe.






I used my trusted aloe vera gel, shea butter, coconut oil and vitamin E oil.







I melted the shea butter and added the coconut and vitamin E oil.






I added the aloe vera gel when the mix cooled down a bit, and used my emulsifier and mixed it up.




I put it in the fridge for a while just to firm up and I forgot it. I went for it and found it rock hard......I figured it had to be the fridges fault so I set it out to get soft but it never did....... soooooo, I melted it down AGAIN......and this time forgot it on the stove!! OMG I took it off JUST in time! it looked awful (sorry no pics) and I added the rest of my aloe vera gel. I mixed it again and this time I did not put it in my fridge. 





I used my aloe vera gel container because I dumped all the gel into the mixture





It does not look like the mixture on UrbanBushBabes.....AT ALL. I think because I left it on the stove too long, the mixture is a bit......separated, and not really fluffy, but I will still use it cuz I used all my gel, and I am not about to throw away ANYTHING #studentbudget


I will have to see how this turns out.....until then,


Peace.

  1. Sounds worthy of a try. My Shea mixture is just olive oil and Shea butter. Duh! Going to try the vitamin e and the aloe. Where do you buy your aloe gel?

    1. Yes it is really good! I got the gel in Earth Elements, here in Kingston Jamaica.
