I haven't made a bath and body thing yet ... but I have a whole bunch of containers that need to be filled with bath and body things, and I have oils, and I have herbs, and I'm going to start learning about lotions and salves! Newbie resources welcome although I'm finding plenty by searching too.

@GuacamoleSalad you can always start with lotion bars. They are easy and don't require too many new ingredients to buy if you've been making soap.
If you want true lotion I recommend the DIY Bath and Body shop on Etsy for recipes. She has some great stuff! It's just a little harder on the wallet to get everything.

Thanks. That sounds like a good idea. I'm playing with herbs a lot lately too, so a salve based on an infused oil seems like it could work. I might leave the emulsions to later.

Welcome to the addiction! I haven’t made a salve yet but have incorporated calendula infused oil into a lotion bar.

@GuacamoleSalad another good place for recipes is HumblebeeandMe.com. She has a beginner lotion series on YT that is really helpful, too.
