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!

Geranium and Frankencense combo! Will make skin feel amazing.
Would like to try abundance with motivation into my cream!
I'll probably try it with frankincense! Looking forward to it.
Peppermint for a cooling sensation on a Hot Summer's day!
I like Young Living Lavender and Royal Hawian Sandalwood essential oils blended in my body butter. #bestbodybutter
German chamomile
I add Myrrh to mine!! Works GREAT for the skin support and hair support as a hair mask!
Lavender! Always a good oil choice.
I am definitely trying this! I will be trying citrus fresh and maybe tea tree oil!
