Hi Julie! Your best bet is probably to make a second batch of plain white lotion (use water instead of the basil infused witch hazel & maybe a light colored oil like sunflower instead of hemp/avocado) and then mix the two batches of lotion together. Hopefully, that will lighten things up. Thanks for letting me know that there’s a max level of basil to use; that’s something I hadn’t considered before & it will be useful to others reading the comments as well! :)

I used 1/3 cup of packed basil as one would when making pesto…clearly I shouldn’t have packed it into the measuring cup..how can I now dilute it to get the pretty light green color without ruining the consistency?
