Be kind to your hard-working skin! This homemade body butter recipe will leave your skin moisturized and soft, thanks to rich cocoa butter and coconut oil. We love its whipped consistency that goes on smoothly and feels light to the touch.
Whipped Body Butter
Ingredients
1 cup organic coconut oil
1 cup organic solid cocoa butter (do not use lotion)
15 drops of your favorite topical/aromatic essential oil (we love Cedarwood, Lavender, and Frankincense essential oils)
Directions
Warm a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, then add coconut oil and cocoa butter. Melt until completely liquefied, about 4–5 minutes.
Pour into a glass mixing bowl and place in refrigerator for 30–45 minutes to cool and just set but not harden.
Stir in essential oils.
Using an electric hand mixer, whip until firm peaks form, about 10 minutes.
Gently transfer to a seal-able jar or container. Store at room temperature to avoid melting or solidifying.
Massage into dry skin!

Love this recipe!!! Used Frankincense, my favorite every day oil :) Thank you for this recipe :)
I would use Stress Away, that scent smells so nice it always makes me sigh with a relaxed happy smile
I love making body butter. My next "to try" combo: Frankincense and Palo Santo.
Sounds lovely! I'd love to try it with bergamot and orange. Mmmm.
I'm all about lavender but will also experiment with EO.
Great Recipe! I will be using Young Living Stress Away and Joy oil.
I would make with the oils in the recipe. Those are 3 of my favorites.
My body cream would have to have
Cedarwood & Lavender. Love how relaxed Lavender always is for me, and Cedarwood helps my family like me at night.
I was thinking about white Angelica or Release. I have a massage business and these help me leave my work at the office. Plus they smell great! Putting them in a body butter would be divine.
