Now add essential oils such as almond or avocado oil, and a few drops of lavender or lemon oil for the aromatherapy, honey, aloe vera and heat until they properly mix in the solution.
Let the mixture cool down and then put it in fridge so that it chills and hardens. Grind the mixture in blender, and when it starts looking like whipped cream, take it out and store it in a mason jar.
