Mango Citrus Body Butter | Garden Therapy
Anyone who has spent a long time in hospital (11 days for me!) will know how unforgiving the airconditioning is on your skin. My nurse gave me some lanolin that helped a lot but… it’s not the loveliest of lotions! Body butter is so much nicer smelling and making your own means you know what is going in it. When I have some more strength I’m hoping to make some of this for myself and maybe some more to make as gifts for everyone who helped me out!
