Fragrant Bath Melts
You will need:
- 20g cocoa butter
- 10g shea butter
- 10g emulsifying wax
- 5ml fragrance oil of your choice
- Pyrex measuring jug
- Small heart soap mould

Weigh out the cocoa butter, shea butter and emulsifying wax in a Pyrex measuring jug. Melt the mixture in a waterbath. You can make a waterbath by filling a pot or pan with water. Stir gently until everything is melted. Remove from the heat and add 1 teaspoon of fragrance oil. We love using Lily Rose or Coconut fragrance oil.

Pour the melted, fragranced butters into the mould and leave to cool.
Choose a small mould so as to minimise the oiliness in your bath.
The emulsifying wax will stop the bath melts from leaving an oily ring around the bath.
