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!

Ylang Ylang- wonderful as it is!
Love the Whipped Body Butter and I mix in these oils: 2 drops jasmine oil, 2 drops clary sage oil, 6 drops lemon and 5 drops geranium.
Happy!

I would try a body butter made with ylang ylang- what could be better!
This sounds wonderful! I would use Stress Away and Lavender in my body butter!
This looks amazing! I am definitely going to give it a try. The first time will most likely be with lavender but I can think of so many that would be delicious! Anything citrus, or Treasure the Season!
I would use Rose with a touch of Patchouli essential oil.
I would combine Rose with a touch of Patchouli
This sounds absolutely wonderful!! I can't wait to try it!! I'm thinking I might try any one of these oils... Melrose, Sensational, Lady Sclareol, Light the Fire, Dragon Time or even Rose!
