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!

Copaiba and Patchouli will be in my body butter♡
My most recent body butter blend includes Northern Lights Black Spruce, Lemon Myrtle, Frank and Stress Away - love the way these oils make my skin feel and smell!
I do lavender, Frankincense and gentle baby for everyday wear. Summer time I add in some carrot seed.
I do a night lotion with lavender, cedarwood and peace& calm
I will also try one with white Angelica and cedarwood :)
Royal Hawaiian sandalwood and cinnamon to go with the cocoa butter
Thank you for this recipe!
I will make it with Clary Sage and Lavender !
Ahh I think Frankincense and Myrrh would make a lovely combination for my skin.
Would use Patchouli oil. Love the smell.
Frankincense, Joy, and Lavender
Lavender, geranium and frankincense!
Rose, frankincense and Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood
Orange and Jade Lemon
I want to make it with Stress Away and Lavender. Also, I will make one with RC!
