How to Make Shaving Cream
Add 1/2 cup virgin coconut oil and 1/2 cup pure shea butter to a microwave-safe container.
Microwave coconut oil and shea butter blend for 30 seconds. Stir and microwave an additional 30 seconds. If mixture is not completely melted, microwave an additional 15 seconds.
Add 2 tablespoons olive oil to mixture.
Add 4-5 drops of essential oil. In this project, we used an oil blend of spruce, rosewood and frankincense. Stir.
