Almond Milk & Sea Salt Hand & Body Lotion Recipe

When you use this lotion, you won't even know you have it on your skin. It soaks in very quickly and leaves no greasy after-feel. Your skin will love the moisturizing properties of the Jojoba Oil and Avocado Butter. This lotion is on the thinner side which makes it a great summer lotion or for people who do not like a heavier product on their skin.
