The moisturising body bar
- ¼ cup sweet almond oil
- ¼ cup cocoa butter
- ½ cup beeswax pellets
- 10 drops lemon essential oil
Recipe:
- Start by melting the beeswax and cocoa butter in a small bowl in the microwave.
- Stir the mixture and return it to the microwave if it isn’t fully blended.
- Add the sweet almond oil and essential oil, then mix well.
- Pour the mixture into a small silicone mould and leave to cool at room temperature.
- Once cooled, remove your moisturising body bar from the mould, place it in an airtight container and store it in the fridge.
How to use:
After your shower, while your skin is still slightly damp, rub the moisturising bar over the areas you wish to target (calves, thighs, buttocks, arms…). The bar will melt on contact with your skin, and you can then massage it in by hand. As lemon essential oil is photosensitising, it is best to use your bar in the evening.
Your moisturising bar will keep in the fridge for approximately 2 months.
A moisturising coconut oil and grapefruit treatment
- 6 tsp coconut oil
- 7 drops lemon essential oil
- 1 teaspoon grapefruit juice
Recipe:
Melt the coconut oil in the microwave for a few seconds if needed, then add the essential oil and grapefruit juice. Mix well.
How to use:
Apply this moisturising treatment to clean, dry skin, massaging vigorously over areas affected by dimpling. Grapefruit juice and lemon essential oil make the skin more sensitive to the sun: apply this treatment in the evening and avoid any sun exposure straight afterwards.

Your anti-dimple body butter will keep for approximately 1 month in the fridge. If it softens, simply whisk it vigorously again.
A few precautions before you start
These homemade treatments are made for the pleasure of taking care of yourself. Always test them on a small area of skin, such as the inside of your elbow, the day before first use. Essential oils are not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women or young children: in that case, make your recipes without them. Finally, as your preparations contain no preservatives, keep them cool, use clean utensils and throw them away if their smell or appearance changes.
