1. Set up a double boiler by filling a pot with a few inches of water and placing a heat-safe bowl on top.
2. Combine the stearic acid, shea butter, and cocoa butter in the top bowl of the double boiler.
3. Heat the water to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, until all the ingredients are completely melted.
4. Once the mixture is melted, remove the bowl from the heat.
5. Stir in the jojoba oil and a few drops of vitamin E oil.
6. Allow the mixture to cool for about 15 to 30 minutes until it starts to solidify.
7. Using a hand mixer, whip the semi-solid mixture until it becomes light and fluffy.
