Would this be good for a lotion recipe?

I believe so. The texture and quality is good, however, it does not smell like chocolate. There is a new kind of cocoa being grown in South America and it is so mild it doesn't have the trademark scent.

I used this product for a lotion AND lip chap recipe. They both turned out wonderful! Very smooth and soft!

Someone else commented that it does not smell like cocoa, however the one I reveived smelled very much like chocolate! It was a wonderful scent, and I almost didn't need to add any other fragrance to the recipe.

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.

I use it as you would lotion and facial moisturizer. My skin is dry, this work much better than lotion and expensive creams. You can also use it for cooking.

Hmmm. I guess I'm not sure. Maybe if you use a mixer or something. This stuff is super thick. I actually loved the smell but the texture is so thick. I wonder if it would work better if I warmed it up somehow. It's so hard I couldn't get any to use on my hands. At any rate, I definitely recommend thinning this out, I just don't know how one would do that.

Yes, you shouldn't need a lot but it sends on the size of the batch you are making. I use about 5 drops in my body lotion- per 4 oz and it works great in terms of getting the aromatic effect I'm looking for! Good luck!

It should work fine with any lotion. Is not a sponge but a leather applicator

I mainly use it to make body lotion and creams. Periodically will use on my hands and feet. I've had the same container at least a year now ... and it is at least half full. A little bit goes a long way!

You could use it with coconut oil no problem. the lotion works alone just fine though too

I'm sure it will work. You probably want to apply it on the applicator sparely, a little at a time. That's what I do with the lotion I use. I always clean it after use.

The cream is more like heavy whipping cream so it would depend on the recipe but I do use it a lot. Just keep in mind it has more fat and almost no water.

I don't prepare mine. I keep it in the fridge for storage until I need it. I set it out for bout a day before I need it so it can come to room temperature. After that I use it just like lotion but it works so much better. I rub it between my hands and it melts really quick. Don't know how to prepare it if you making things with it

It's not a self tanner, so it wouldn't work using that as just lotion. You use it prior to going in the tanning bed and you can use it as a tanner if you're laying out in the sun.

I would say not. Better used for a thicker liquid ex: hand soap, shampoo, lotion etc. hope this helps.

I used it to make lotion. I mixed it with coconut oil and almond oil. I melted the ingredients together then let them cool until the outer part was solid. Then whip it in a mixer.

I just looked this up online and this would be fine to use in any of the recipes I saw. Looks interesting. I may try it myself. :-)

They say you can but the lotion should be of the same viscosity as the soaps. Like soft soap if you're not familiar with the simplehuman soaps.

Based on the inactive ingredients "Soap (refer to Product Details), Water, Coconut Acid, Petrolatum, Glycerin, Fragrance, Sodium Chloride, Titanium Dioxide, Trisodium HEDTA, Ultramarine Blue", this probably wouldn't be the best product for you. ^.^

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