Homemade happiness in a jar. . .

Today I’m sharing a fabulous recipe for making your own [super easy] body/hand lotion. If you are like our family of dry skinned girls, you’ll be thrilled to try this.

My eldest daughter has a continuous battle with allergies and severe eczema. I’ve found the key to success with keeping it all under control is adequate moisturizing and hydration, which decreases itching and formation of eczema. . .  so we are always seeking good moisturisers.

When I first read about this homemade lotion I thought it sounded interesting. Then it popped up again in a link party and then on numerous other blogs. . . and everyone was raving about it, so we gave it a try.

There’s only 3 ingredients, but you can add scent (like rose water) if you wish.

The making of this body/hand lotion couldn’t be easier.

Add all 3 ingredients to a bowl and whip with beaters until it resembles icing.

Transfer mixture to bottles and jars.
