KELP or "seaweed" is form of algae marine plant that grows on rocks in the ocean. Kelp is a source of Algin, a thickening agent used in toothpaste, paint, ice cream and cosmetics. The best times to apply Kelp are early morning and early evening, when the liquids will be absorbed most quickly. Seashells are rich in calcium. Fertilizer manufacturers use seashells as a growth stimulator to help plants become more resistant to fungi. Crushed seashells can be used as soil amendment to loosen clay soil and improve drainage. Calcium carbonate in seashells provides a slow release of calcium that de-acidifies and helps balance soil pH.
1 cup Shea Butter1 cup Coconut oil1 cup Beeswax4 tablespoons Zinc oxide powder (Sophie recommends non nano)1 teaspoon essential oil: sandalwood Heat a double boiler - I place a glass bowl over a pot of boiling water. Place the butter, oil and pellets in the bowl and heat until completely melted (3-4 minutes). Remove from heat, and whisk in zinc oxide and 1tsp of essential oil - pour into molds. Lotion bars will set in a couple of hours (1 hour in the fridge). But you can keep in the molds for as long as you want, and best to do this if you aren't going to use right away.
