contains the following ingradients:
beeswax, sweet almond oil, coconut oil, emu oil, jojoba oil, shea butter, mango & or cocoa butter
Anyone have a recipe with all these ingredients they wouldn't mind sharing. I had someone give me a lotion bar at Christmas and it contained all these ingredients and it was awesome
Thanks in advance.

You can make up a recipe easily with the information you have here for the ingredients - although without knowing the percentages in the original bar - it may not be quite the same.
Using the general rule of thumb of 1/3 wax, 1/3 butter, 1/3 oils for a lotion bar (this is just a guideline, you can change those and still come up with a very nice bar) - you could use the following guideline:
1/3 beeswax
1/3 combination of sweet almond, coconut, emu and jojoba
1/3 combination of shea, mango & cocoa butter
If you were making a 3 oz. batch, the above would look like:
1 oz. beeswax
.25 oz sweet almond
.25 oz coconut
.25 oz emu
.25 oz jojoba
.33 oz shea butter
.33 oz mango
.34 oz cocoa
