Notes
You might need to play with the texture of your shea butter until it’s just right for whipping. If the butter is too hard at room temperature, soften it slightly by warming over low heat for a minute or two in a double boiler. If the shea butter is too soft, pop it in the freezer for 5-10 minutes until it’s firmed up.
Keep the container tightly closed to avoid moisture from getting in. Unrefrigerated scrub will last approximately 2 months and refrigerated scrub will keep for 6 months.
