Headache Relief Bar recipe

[Deleted]

1/4 c olive oil

1/4 c coconut oil

1/2 c beeswax

1/2 c shea butter

40 drops peppermint EO

20 drops lavender EO

7 drops eucalyptus EO

Using mediuim heat and a double boiler, add olive oil, coconut oil and beeswax to the top pot and heat until melted, stirring constantly. Add shea butter and stir, just until everything is melted well.  Be careful not to overheat the shea butter as it can become grainy.  Remove from heat and add EOs.  Stir well.  Pour into molds.  I use a 12 cavity rectangular mold made out of that stuff you bake in--can't think of the name!  Let harden and then remove from mold.  I usually let it sit for several hours or overnight.  This recipe usually makes about 6-7 of my size bars. 

Do NOT wet the bars before using.  Just rub it onto your skin (keep out of eyes!).

We do have customers who use this for migraines. Dh also uses it for his migraines. We have found that it will not totally get rid of one that is full blown, but if used at the first sign, it generally keeps it from becoming really bad and prevents it from lasting very long.

So this isn't really soap, but more like a migraine relief rub? I'm more than willing to try it!

I make a bath bomb called "Sick Day". It has the eucalyptus and peppermnt oil. I love it, especially during allergy season.
