Mosquito Repellent Lotion Bars




It is that time a year and if you are like me this is worth a try! Mosquito love me; you know how they are attracted to certain blood types and other things to do with your body chemistry? Well I have like everything in me and I think that is why I can be sitting right next to my husband and he doesn't get bit but I do...lol... so yes I am going to be making these and trying them instead of putting so many harsh chemicals onto my skin.

Everything you need you can find on Amazon or eBay depending on which one you like more.

What you need:
1T Beeswax
4T Shea Butter (solid)
2T Coconut Oil
10 drops Miracle Glow Oil
10 drops Citronella Oil
5 drops Peppermint Oil
5 drops Lemon Oil
20 drops Lemongrass Oil
Small silicone mold

Now you're ready to make them...

Add all ingredients to a microwave safe bowl (or large glass Pyrex measuring cup). Cook for 40 second increments, stirring each time until everything is smooth. Pour your liquid into your mold and let sit until the bars are solid. Once they are store your bars in an airtight container.

All you do is rub the bars on your open skin and it "should" help. I say "should" only because I have not made them yet to confirm if they work.
