Recipe: Seductive & Hydrating Body Lotion with Black Opium Over Red

Create a rich, hydrating body lotion that deeply moisturizes your skin while enveloping it in the captivating aroma of Black Opium Over Red.

Instructions for Making the Body Lotion:

1. Sanitize: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment, utensils, and lotion containers with isopropyl alcohol. Allow them to air dry completely.

2. Prepare Phases A & B: In separate heat-resistant beakers, weigh out the ingredients for Phase A (oil phase) and Phase B (water phase).

3. Heat Phases: Gently heat both Phase A and Phase B in a double boiler or microwave until Phase A is fully melted (around 70-75°C) and Phase B is at a similar temperature.

4. Emulsify: Slowly pour the heated Phase B (water) into the heated Phase A (oil) while continuously mixing with a stick blender (immersion blender) on high speed for 3-5 minutes. Continue blending until a stable, homogenous emulsion forms and begins to thicken.

5. Cool Down: Remove the beaker from the heat and continue to stir occasionally as the lotion cools down. Once the temperature drops below 40°C, it's time for Phase C.

6. Add Cool Down Phase (C): Add the Black Opium Over Red Fragrance Oil, Vitamin E, and your chosen preservative to the cooled lotion. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution.

7. Check pH (Recommended): If desired, check the pH of your finished lotion. Adjust with a few drops of lactic acid (to lower pH) or baking soda solution (to raise pH) if necessary, aiming for a pH between 4.5 and 5.5 for skin compatibility.

8. Package: Transfer the finished body lotion into your sanitized lotion bottles or jars.

Recommendations for Use:

• Fragrance Concentration: This recipe uses 0.8% of Black Opium Over Red Fragrance Oil, which provides a noticeable and long-lasting scent. You can adjust this from 0.3% for a subtle aroma up to 1% for a more prominent scent in lotions and creams.

• Temperature Sensitivity: Always add the fragrance oil in the cool-down phase (below 40°C) to prevent altering its delicate notes due to heat.

• Compatibility: This fragrance oil is designed to be compatible with a wide range of cosmetic bases, including oil, water, and emulsion systems. Its excellent solubility in various solvents ensures clarity and stability in your formulations.

• Storage: Store the finished lotion in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to maintain its stability and scent integrity. Proper preservation will ensure a longer shelf life.

• Usage: Apply generously to clean skin after showering or as needed throughout the day to moisturize and leave a lasting, seductive fragrance.

• Patch Test: Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin before full application, especially if you have sensitive skin, to check for any adverse reactions.
