Another one that I make is with Shea butter. I take the Shea butter and I add crushed juniper berries, oatmeal, chamomile, lavender and a drop or two of almond oil. I put them in a pan and let them melt. I constantly stir it until it is done. Then I wait till it cools a bit and I pour it into little containers. I use the ones with the blue top that was on a made for tv commercial. They really work well.
