COCONUT & ROOIBOS MOISTURISER

MAKES 250ml SHELF LIFE 3 MONTHS 1 rooibos (red bush) teabag 2 tsp coconut milk powder (see tip) 1 cup coconut oil 30g shea butter 1 Make a strong tea infusion. Steep teabag in 3 tbsp boiling water in a small glass bowl for 15 mins. Remove teabag from infusion and stir in coconut milk powder (if using), then set aside to cool. 2 While tea is cooling, make a double boiler by placing a glass bowl over a pan of simmering water. Allow water to lap at bowl, without boiling over. Place coconut oil and shea butter in bowl, allow to melt, then remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly until just soft set. Use a hand whisk to whip it up to a creamy texture (about 5 mins), then add tea a little at a time, whisking between each addition, until you have a thick, fluffy mixture. Transfer to a cosmetics pot with a lid.
