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!

We were just looking for a new Christmas gift recipe! WOOHOO
I can't wait to try this!! I'm going to use citrus oils because I love how they smell-so refreshing and uplifting!! Thanks for sharing!
I would use a blend of Cedarwood, Lavender, and Tea Tree
I would add geranium and ylang-ylang.
I love body butter with Abundance!
I'd like to try Eucalyptus Radiata & Lemon.
Patchouli and frankincense
Myrrh, Sacred Frankincense, and Joy. Let's start the day with a joyful heart and huge smile!
I love using Lavender, Frankincense in the morning and adding in lemon at night for my daily routine! This sounds like a fantastic idea, I've been diluting the oils in liquid Coconut Oil right now. I will definitely be trying this next!!
