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!

I'd love to try Peace and Calming body butter to slather on before bed!
Oooo nice! I would love to try one with Frankincense and lemon. Also, Christmas Spirit and Orange is an awesome combo.
This is a great recipe! I'll be using Lavender and Peppermint in mine! I love when I use Peppermint oil. This is body butter will be great to put on before I got to bed!
Oooo nice! I have never been a DIY girl, but would love to try this. I would put frankincense and lemon in mine. I might have to make one with Christmas Spirit and Orange too. That's a phenomenal combo.
FRANKINCENSE, MYRRH WITH A DROP OR TWO OF PEPPERMINT.
