Instructions
 

  • Add the coconut oil and shea butter to a double boiler and melt over medium heat. If you don't have a double boiler, place a bowl over a pot of water and bring it to a boil.
  • Once those ingredients are melted, remove the bowl from the heat and stir in the olive oil.
  • Allow the melted oils to cool slightly before stirring in the essential oils.
  • Transfer the bowl to the freezer to set up a bit. You should be able to press your thumb into the shaving cream, and it holds the indent.
  • Lastly, use a hand mixer or stand-up mixer to whip the ingredients.
  • Store in an airtight container.
