Teach Soap

I am wanting to make a lotion bar that will help my skin not be so itchy! I made my first lotion bar with equal parts beeswax, cocoa butter and olive oil with a vanilla fo. I love the feel of it on my skin, at first, until I get very itchy!! Especially my legs! Is there an essential oil that is very good for the health of the skin? I was thinking of making a lotion bar with sweet almond oil, shea butter and beeswax and a small amount of essential oil good for the skin. Should my beeswax be the same quantity as the oils?
Thanks for help!

Also, I was hoping the sweet almond oil might absorb into skin better than the olive oil which is kind of greasy. Any suggestions on absorbent oils?
Thanks!

I would sub the cocoa butter for mango and the olive oil for almond. It's possible that you're itching from the FO. Why not leave it out for right now?

I make my lotion bars with 1/3 beeswax, 1/3 shea or cocoa butter, and 1/3 jojoba oil. I love the feel and have never had a problem with them absorbing into my skin. I still have some that I made over 2 years ago and they still work great. I use very little FO or EO in them. A little goes a long way in Lotion bars it seems. I would try one without any scent in them and see what happens.
