In this article, we will discuss how to make Automation Lotion in simple steps.
Gather Your Ingredients
Before you begin making your Automation Lotion, it is essential to ensure you have all the required ingredients. Here are the things you will need:.
- 1 cup Distilled Water
- 1/4 cup Emulsifying Wax
- 1/2 cup Carrier Oil
- Essential oil of your choice
- 1/4 tsp Phenonip (Preservative)
- 1/4 tsp Xanthan gum
- Double boiler or heat-proof bowl set over a pot of boiling water
- Stick Blender
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Mixing bowl
Getting Started
Now that you have all the needed ingredients, you can start making your Automation Lotion by following these simple steps:.
Step 1: Melting the Emulsifying Wax
On low heat, melt the emulsifying wax in a double boiler or heat-proof bowl set over a pot of boiling water. Ensure it’s well melted, but do not overheat it.
Step 2: Mix the Water and Carrier Oil
In another saucepan, heat the carrier oil and water. Both should be of the same temperature and heated until 70 Celsius.
Step 3: Combine the Emulsifying Wax, Water, and Carrier Oil
Once the wax is melted, add it into your double boiler with the mixture of carrier oil and water. Then stir continuously, but gently and evenly until the mixture holds together in a consistent, creamy texture.
Step 4: Add Preservative and Essential Oils
Mix your Phenonip with your essential oils (about 1 tsp should suffice), then add it to your double boiler and mix gently to unite completely.
Step 5: Add Xanthan Gum
Sprinkle your xanthan gum powder over the top of your lotion and blend it with your stick blender until it’s fully mixed into your lotion.
Storing Your Automation Lotion
As with all lotions, it’s vital to keep your Automation Lotion in a safe place to avoid spoilage or contamination. It is best stored in a plastic bottle with a pump or a glass container with a tight-fitting lid in a dry, dark, and cool place.
Your lotion should be used within six months of making it.
