SHEA BUTTER 🥖 🧈
Shea butter is a natural fat extracted from the nuts of the shea tree (*Vitellaria paradoxa*), which is native to Africa. It is commonly used in skincare, haircare, and cosmetics due to its rich moisturizing and healing properties. Shea butter contains vitamins A, E, and F, along with essential fatty acids that help nourish and protect the skin.
It has a creamy texture and a mild, nutty scent. Unrefined shea butter retains the most nutrients, while refined shea butter has been processed to remove its natural color and scent. It is often used to treat dry skin, eczema, stretch marks, and even minor wounds.

MASA SIMPAN:
Shea butter bisa bertahan 1 hingga 3 tahun, tergantung pada cara penyimpanan dan apakah sudah dicampur dengan bahan lain. Berikut beberapa faktor yang mempengaruhi masa simpannya:
- Shea butter murni (unrefined/raw): biasanya tahan sekitar 1–2 tahun jika disimpan dengan baik.
- Shea butter yang telah diproses (refined): Bisa bertahan hingga **3 tahun, tetapi mungkin kehilangan beberapa manfaat alaminya.
- Shea butter yang dicampur dengan bahan lain: Masa simpannya tergantung pada bahan tambahan, tetapi umumnya lebih pendek.
Cara Penyimpanan yang Benar:
✔ Simpan di tempat sejuk dan kering, jauh dari sinar matahari langsung.
✔ Gunakan wadah kedap udara untuk mencegah oksidasi.
✔ Hindari kontaminasi dengan tangan atau alat yang kotor.
Jika Shea butter mulai berbau tengik atau berubah tekstur menjadi kasar dan berbintik, itu tanda sudah tidak layak pakai.

LOTION 🧴 RECIPE
Making your own lotion at home can be a fun and rewarding project. Here’s a simple recipe to get you started. This basic lotion is moisturizing and can be customized with different oils, essential oils, and other additives.
### Ingredients
- **1/2 cup** distilled water (or rose water for added fragrance)
- **1/4 cup** almond oil, jojoba oil, or any other carrier oil
- **1/4 cup** coconut oil or shea butter
- **1 tablespoon** beeswax (optional, for a thicker consistency)
- **5-10 drops** of essential oil (optional, for fragrance)
- **1/2 teaspoon** vitamin E oil (optional, as a preservative)
### Equipment
- A double boiler or a heat-safe bowl and a saucepan
- A blender or an immersion blender
- A spatula
- Sterilized jars or containers for storing the lotion
### Instructions
1. **Melt the oils and beeswax:**
In a double boiler or a heat-safe bowl set over a saucepan with simmering water, combine the almond oil, coconut oil (or shea butter), and beeswax. Heat gently, stirring occasionally until everything is melted and combined.
2. **Add Vitamin E and essential oils:**
Once the oils and beeswax are melted, remove from heat. Add the vitamin E oil and essential oils (if using). Stir well.
3. **Blend with water:**
Slowly pour the distilled water (or rose water) into the oil mixture while blending. If using a blender, start on low speed and gradually increase. If using an immersion blender, blend continuously as you add the water. This process emulsifies the mixture, creating a lotion.
4. **Cool and store:**
Once the mixture has emulsified and thickened, pour the lotion into sterilized jars or containers. Let it cool completely before sealing.
5. **Label and store:**
Label your containers with the date and ingredients. Store the lotion in a cool, dark place. It should last for several weeks to a few months, depending on the ingredients used and storage conditions.
### Customization Tips
- For extra hydration, you can add a teaspoon of aloe vera gel.
- For a luxurious touch, add a few drops of lavender or chamomile essential oil.
- Adjust the amount of beeswax to achieve the desired consistency. Less beeswax will result in a thinner lotion, while more will make it thicker.
Enjoy your homemade lotion! Remember to perform a patch test before using it extensively to ensure you don't have any sensitivities or allergies to the ingredients.
