Cocoa Butter Antibacterial Moisturizing Lotion
"I think I got this off of Delicious Living, but not sure. I'm not sure why it says "antibacterial" but this can be used on face or body, I'm sure. Probably too oily for oily skin, though. It says, "Cocoa butter is naturally water repellent and thus protective of the skin; it is especially useful for dehydrated skin." I made a modified version of this with shea butter, which I will also post."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
WI Cheesehead
Watertown, Wisconsin
I am a Christian wife and mother of 3 kids. Since my DH's high cholesterol, we've been eating better. I never used to like cooking. Since eating better, I've liked learning and preparing new recipes. My kids haven't reconciled themselves to the new eating yet. I grind my own grain and make all my own breads.?Working 2 hours a day in the local high school lunch room.??I am homeschooling my high schooler.? ?Also found out 1 child has multiple food allergies (wheat, dairy, tomato, chocolate, etc) and another is gluten sensitive. So, we just started (July 09) eating gluten and dairy free. I've been busy with getting our house market ready, even though it's not the best time for that.?
