Can I mix a solution with coconut oil for a rub lotion?

I don't see why not! I am not sure how well the magnesium will absorb? If the flakes dissolve with the coconut oil then I think you have something there..

You sure can! Just be careful with the amount b you use! Too much can add a weird feel to lotions. Hope this helped!

You have to mix it with something first. At my house I used coconut oil, but you can use olive oil from your kitchen. I believe it helps with diffusing.

I agree with everyone below. I used to buy a jar of virgin coconut oil and ghee and then I combine the two in a blender, mix well then pour into two Mason jars. Same benefits, but this is way easier if you don't want to go through that process - it's just more convenient. If you don't mind extra steps though you can purchase a jar or each and mix them together.

I use it straight with no mix of anything added. I melted it down and put in little containers. I've made about 5 so far. It will harden when placed in refrigerator. Run under hot water to soften to get it out of the container. Then use wherever you like. Apply to skin and rub it in. Old fashion 100% coco butter, the best to remove scars, heal abrasions. Very good price. Hope this helps.

No, you would use cocoa butter, coconut OIL, or shea butter. see a recipe at www.wellnessmama.com

I usually create a magnesium oil by pouring a cup of boiling water into a bowl, then add 3 tablespoons of the magnesium flakes. I then pour this mixture into the bath. If you add coconut oil it may be quite slippery. I like to rub the oil on my wet body after bathing. A little goes a long way.

Yes ... I use coconut oil as body oil. Also it is good for sunburn care as well. After sun.

I'm not sure about that. I used it to make a body butter by mixing it with coconut oil and shea butter.

If you mean to warm/melt ingredients to mix them, I would definitely say yes! If you mean to just keep them warm all day for use on people's skin, I'm not sure - it might be a little too warm. There is no temp control on the unit, only on or off. So you'd have to test it with the scrubs/lotions you want to use and see if it feels too hot to you.

I do not believe so. This has been heated, no matter what they claim. Turns brown when melted (should be clear) and does not have coconut scent. This is OK for a body oil, but would not use it to cook with unless you can only afford this price. You get what you pay for with these oils and the bit more is well worth it. I use it for hands and to put in my dog's food. Good for dog's coat. Hope this helps to make a better choice.

I haven't personally mixed the two in a container, but I do apply both to my hair right after each other. I apply the coconut oil and then the shea butter on top. But I have heard of people making a concoction of the two and other ingredients together.

No but it may be used with carrier oil, which could. I mix with coconut oil, as it doesn't clog. I suppose anything could if you use too much. Sometimes I use without carrier.

Yes, just follow the directions on the bottle. Don't rub just soak, gently squeeze and dry. I work's great

I did not use coconut oil. I usually put some drops into a bath with Epsom salt and baking soda.

Lavender is an oil where you can generally apply without diluting, especially if you are applying to the bottom of the feet. However, if you are noticing a mild reaction when applying this oil to the skin, fractionated coconut oil will do the trick. I generally use a approximately 5 drops of coconut oil to 1 drop of essential oil. A word of caution, if you do notice a reaction, do not try washing off with water. Doing this will actually drive the oil deeper into the skin. Any questions, email eodoterraoils@gmail.com.

I'm pretty sure you cannot. May want to ask the manufacturer. I do like to use Louana pure coconut oil.
