Another added benefit, is that it is less expensive (considerably) than the cheapest lotion that you can buy, and much more healthy than most, if not all, of your high-end lotions.
Put the ingredients into your chosen container. Organic is always better. If your coconut oil is not hard when you first make it, that is better. The amount of each ingredient can change according to your personal needs and likes.
Stir the hard coconut oil, lavender oil, and almond oil together. You can use a stick or a fork. Whatever you like, even a spoon. If your coconut oil is softened, you can shake everything up really hard (and burn a small number of calories).
Set it outside of either your shower or bath, or if it's in a waterproof container, it can be with you. All this does is allow it to soften more easily.
Wrap it up tightly when you leave the shower unless you want to put the body lotion on your hair.
Apply the lotion all over without drying yourself at all. Be sure that you have a towel on the floor, or at the very least, an increased awareness of the floor being slippery.
Use a towel to damp dry your body where you applied the lotion. Be aware that you will need to change out your towels more quickly, if you are in the habit of using them for an extended period of time.
Do this with every shower to possibly improve the health of your skin.
