Basic Body Lotion

1 tablespoons Sodium Laurel Sulfate Liquid
½ cup Cetyl Alcohol Flakes
2 tablespoons Sweet Almond Oil
2 tablespoons Liquid Glycerine
1 tablespoon Stearic Acid
4  cups warm water
1 teaspoon Perfume Fragrance Oil or Essential oils
1 drop Liquid Dye
1 Vitamin E Capsule
3/4 teaspoon Germal Plus (preservative)

Place first 5 ingredients in a double boiler.  Stir until crystals are dissolved and becomes somewhat transparent. If any of the crystals are not dissolved, you will have little particles in the cream once it is made that you cannot get rid of. Mixture will likely appear "gummy". Remove from heat. Add glycerine and mix well. Then add water, fragrance, dye, vitamin E and mix well. Allow to cool slightly. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Pour into containers. Avoid contact with eye area when using.
