LOTION:

1. To two large microwave-safe measuring cups, empty 64 oz. of lotion into each.
2. Place one cup of lotion into microwave and heat for about 2 minutes until almost all liquid. This will make it easier to pour into bottles.
3. In small glass bowl, mix 2.0 oz. of Vanilla Bean Noel fragrance oil with 2.0 oz. of Vanilla Color Stabilizer. Mix well and let sit for two minutes.
4. To lotion, add 2.0 oz. of fragrance mixture and blend into lotion.
5. Add 1 teaspoon of Dark Gold Mica Powder. Mix well with wire whisk until blended in.
6. Pour lotion into 10 clear bullet bottles. If necessary, use decorator piping bags or zip close bags to get lotion into bottles.
7. Set aside and let cool.
8. For other 64 oz. of lotion, repeat above steps using Holiday Berry fragrance oil. Add 2.0 oz. of fragrance without adding vanilla color stabilizer. For color, add Strawberry Red Liquid Dye until desired shade is reached.
9. Trim pump top dip tubes to fit bottles. Once lotion has completely cooled, attach to bottles. 
10. Label product accordingly.

To Use: Rub into skin as desired.

SHOWER GEL:

1. To two clean microwave-safe measuring cups, empty 67.50 oz. of product into each.
2. Place one cup of shower gel into microwave and heat for about 2 minutes until almost all liquid. This will make it easier to pour into bottles.
3. Add 1.50 oz. of modified Vanilla Bean Noel fragrance oil (from Step 3 above) and gently mix so as not to create too many bubbles.
4. Add 1-2 teaspoons of gold mica powder. Gently stir with wire whisk until blended in.
5. Pour into 10 bullet bottles and let cool. Once cooled, apply disc caps to bottles.
6. Repeat above steps with remaining 64 oz. of suspension base. Add 1.50 oz. of Holiday Berry fragrance oil and Strawberry Red Liquid Dye until desired shade is reached.

To Use: Pour onto wet washcloth or nylon puff and lather onto body. Rinse off.

BODY SPRITZ:

1. To two clean microwave-safe measuring cups, empty 64 oz. of body splash into each.
2. Place one cup of body splash into microwave for about 2 minutes to slightly warm product.
3. Mix 0.30 oz. Holiday Berry Fragrance and 1.20 oz. FO/EO Modifier and stir.
4. Add entire mixture to warm base in bowl and gently stir. Pour into 10 bottles. The product may have a few bubbles on top of bottles. These will disappear.
5. Trim sprayer dip tubes to fit bottles. Let product cool completely before applying.
6. With remaining 64 oz. of product, repeat above steps. Mix 0.30 oz. of Vanilla Bean Noel fragrance oil mixture (from Step 3 above) and mix with 1.20 oz. of FO/EO Modifier. Add to Body Splash.
