Homemade Flavored and Scented Massage Oil

by Marye Audet on July 19th, 2008

 bride flip flops

Scented massage oil is wonderfully relaxing and a great enhancement to those couple moments.  And, if you have never used it? Wow! You are missing out. The stuff you buy is outrageously expensive though.

Organic coconut oil to the rescue. It is antibacterial, antifungal, great for your skin..smells good without adding anything and comparatively cheap. It is perfectly safe to use anywhere you like in anyway you like.

You don’t want to add anything that has sugar to it for flavoring.

The oil is liquid at body temperature so heat it until it is a liquid and then add a couple of tablespoons of Monin Sugar Free Syrup

You may need to adjust amounts to your tastes.  Keep it in the fridge so that it will stay solid in the summertime.

Now.  Use your imagination.  I think there are about 100 flavors of the Monin sugar free.  Knock yourself out.

    Just something to remember: coconut oil causes latex to deteriorate.

    LOL Marye! I am sure G-d has never let human birth control measures thwart His plans…It hasn’t stopped me from trying though (probably to my own detriment, I’m sure). ;-)

    Fern, too funny! We obviously haven’t used it. But then, we were told we were infertile. HA!
