Baby Body Cream from Breastmilk

I like to say that breastmilk answers most questions regarding a newborn. Fever? Diarrhoea? Crying? Hot? Cold? Scared? Sleepy? Breastmilk!! 

Here is yet another wonder of this liquid miracle. It can be used directly to soothe a baby’s skin or made into this body cream and stored for future use. 

Ingredients 

  • 100 ml Breastmilk 

  • 100 ml Coconut oil 

  • 1.5 tablespoon Beeswax (or 0.5 tb Candelilla wax) 

  • 5 drops of Vitamin-E oil 

  • (1-3 drops essential oil-optional- not for under 6 months) 

    How to make:  

Warm the wax and oil at a low temperature until it melts. 
Gradually stir in breastmilk (room temperature).
Then quickly beat up the mixture until it thickens.
Lastly, add Vitamin E oil and essential oil if using.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 months
