Lotion Recipes & Body Butters

Lotion recipes and body butters are all about keeping skin soft, comfortable, and well cared for, especially when it needs a little extra nourishment. In this collection, you’ll learn how to make a homemade lotion, a natural hand cream, body oils, and DIY body butters ranging from lightweight, everyday moisturisers to richer blends designed for dry or weather-exposed skin.

Some of these recipes focus on emulsified lotions that absorb quickly and feel light on the skin, while others are water-free body butters that offer deeper, longer-lasting moisture. Whether you prefer a fast-absorbing lotion or a more indulgent butter, these recipes help you understand how different oils, butters, and emulsifiers affect the final feel on the skin.

Once you’re comfortable following recipes, the Fabulous Face Creams & Moisturizers Course also covers the core skills behind lotions and emulsions, helping you learn how to create, adjust, and troubleshoot your own formulas with confidence.
