Ultra-Light, Rich Night Cream
Ingredients
- 2 to 2-1/2 tablespoons (30-45 ml) jojoba oil
- 3 tablespoons (40 gm) shea butter
- 1 tablespoon (10 gm) cocoa butter
- 1-1/2 tablespoons (20 gm) avocado oil
- 10 drops carrot seed oil
- 10 drops of frankincense essential oil
- 10 drops of lavender essential oil
- 5 drops of Organixx Magi-Complexx essential oil blend
Instructions
- In a double boiler, melt the shea butter and cocoa butter gently, avoiding direct heat. Combine with remaining ingredients in large glass bowl and, using a hand mixer, blend for around 7 minutes to add lots of oxygen to the mixture.
- Sit bowl in freezer for 10-15 minutes (no more), then blend with hand mixer again for about 7-8 minutes until it reaches a creamy consistency.
- Using a clean spatula, transfer cream into sterilized glass jars and put the lid on tight. Store in a cool, dry spot.
I would like to try this recipe, but, except for avocado oil, I don't have any of the ingredients. I have never even heard of carrot seed oil. Where would you get this and the other oils/butters and how do you know their quality? Thank you.
Hi Michelle, thank you for your question.
You should be able to find a lot of the ingredients in your local grocery store or health food store.
You can also search online to see where you can purchase them either locally or directly online.
We hope this helps. Let us know if you decide to recreate this recipe for yourself. We'd love to hear how it turns out for you.
Thank you so much. Wishing you a lovely day!
This sounds amazing! Is it meant to be an eye cream or for the whole body? If it is an eye cream, what specifically should it do for the area around the eyes?

Hello Customer Service,
I've been having a reaction to using Frankincense. It seems to be leaving red blotches on my face and neck. I've been diluting it with a sufficient amount of Argan oil, but still having a reaction. Any other EO I could use in its place?
