| Anyone up to trying to replicate the scent and hopefully the texture of Origin's Ginger Souffle Whipped Body Creme using Mango Butter? I would happily settle for just the scent. |

***All measures by weight, except if otherwise noted.
1 oz. shea butter
3 oz. mango butter
2 oz. fractionated coconut oil
1/2 to 1 oz. glycerin
1/8 teaspoon rosemary oil extract
1/2 to 1 1/2 oz. Natrasorb (optional)
Ginger Essence Fragrance Oil from sweetcakes.com is an identical dupe of the Origins fragrance.
Process:
Melt shea butter and mango butter over low heat or in the microwave. Once liquid, remove from heat and stir in fixed oils and ROE. Cool in freezer til white "crust" begins to form(from fats hardening) and the butters become semi-opaque. Remove from freezer and begin beating with an electric mixer, preferably one with whisks. Beaters work OK too. Once the mix becomes aerated and fluffy, drizzle in the glycerin while mixing on low speed. Once all the glycerin is in, whip again. Feel the consistency and decide if you want this product to have a less greasy feel. If you do, add in the Natrasorb by sprinkling atop the butter mix, and whip again til all is incorporated.
I've made it before - it really is lovely!
Have fun. |
