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!

Frankincense and lavender
Love homemade body butters! A favorite combination I love is Lavender, Bergamot and a touch of peppermint.
I would use Melaluca, Frankincense, Lavender because of it's good properties for skin and Orange or Lemon oil for a citrus scent.
I might go gentle baby essential oil or easy prays with lavender and bergamot. Either way, I'm whipping this bad boy body butter up. Thanks!
Lavender, Geranium, and Cedarwood.
I would use lavender
I would use Awaken and Stress away with a little but if lavender. Can't wait to make this !!!
I would try Transformation, Sclaressence and Sacred mountain...a spiritual, uplifting and balancing blend!
I'm loving lemon and frankincense right now, so I think that's what I would use. 😊
This looks like a great recipe - I would like to try. I hope I win the skincare package.
