Relax and enjoy.  Pretty notes of pink jasmine, pineapple nectar, green apple and honeydew melon combine with the slight chocolate aroma from the cocoa butter to make a relaxing bath.  We have added Horsetail butter,  thought to have antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory benefits.  Soak up the benefits of the moisturizing oils and butters in this pretty heart shaped bath melt.

Directions:
NOTE: If you are making these products for sale, good manufacturing practices recommend you wear a hairnet, gloves and a mask. We also recommend a clean apron and workspace.

  2. Next add 2 oz. of horsetail butter and place in the microwave.   Heat until butters are melted. 
  3. Place container back on the scale and tare, measure in 1.5 ounces of rice bran oil, .25 oz polysorbate 80 and 2 mls of fragrance*. Stir well.
  4. Add 3 drops of true red EZ color and stir.  Add more EZ color if you want a darker red bath melt.
  5. Pour 1.5 ounces into each cavity and place in a freezer to harden.
  6. Remove bath melts from mold and set aside.
  7. Re melt remaining butter mixture, if necessary, and pour mixture into the mold and place in the freezer.
  8. The bath melts are soft, so it is a good idea to wrap in plastic wrap and then place in an organza bag.
  9. Place 2 bath melts in an organza bag.
  10. Label product accordingly.
  11. NOTE: Bath melts are soft and can melt in warmer temperatures. If selling in warmer climates at a show, we recommend keeping the melts in a cooler and having a sample out on your table.  
To Use: Place 1 melt under running water in the tub. Be sure to use a bathtub mat as this product can make tub slippery.
