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 love Melrose, Lavender and a little bit of peppermint.
I love EOs in skincare products.
I will have to try this recipe with your Panaway as it's my favorite!
So many to pick from but my favorite smell is Transformation.
I love Sensation! I will be trying this recipe and adding a few drops :-)
I'd probably try out the recipe using Palmarosa essential oil.
I think Jasmine would smell wonderful in body butter
,I have made a face cream with the Y.L oils Frankincense , Sandalwood . Geranium, and a little rose . Just lovely . Will look forward to trying this body butter .
Can't wait to try this! Hope I win too!
I have made this body butter using Egyptian Gold, Awaken, Lavender, Roman Chamomile. I always feel very decadent because I am treating my skin to gold!
I'm thinking of PanAway and Copiabia to also help support muscles. Plus the smell will be AMAZING
