15 oz baby lotion (love the night time baby lotion with soothing aromas like light lavender scent)
1/2 cup vaseline
8 oz. vitamin E cream

I used a pump container - empty and cleaned pump from dollar store hand sanititizer ($1).
Until I know what I want to do with the "batch" of lotion, I put it in a container like empty salsa or spagetti jar.
I have found bottles and containers of all sizes at stores that work. Find the right bottles and it's great as gifts.
When I give it as a gift I add to the note that it's: Hand and Body Lotion with soothing aromas made by .....




What brand of baby lotion do you buy that has this fragrance
in it. And do you find this at the dollar store?

Try your local pharmacy. If they don't have it, your pharmacist might be able to order it for you.

Thanks!

Here is exactly what I use for one batch of lotion. I purchased all ingredients at Dollar General.

That was so nice of you to post the picture. Having the picture will help me get the correct things. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe for lotion. :-)

I went on line and here in Central Florida it is found at Lowe's, in the paint department.

A dermatologist once told me that ideally if you wash your hands 10 times apply lotion 11 times. I am also a nurse and the soaps are ruthless. So, carry your product with you, use it continually, and we should all have hands as soft as a baby's bottom, lol.......
