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 am new so my oils are limited, but I can't wait to try this. I think that I would use Frank and Orange. Thank you for the recipe. I am trying to use up all my conventional products and get to where everything is natural with my oils!
This sounds wonderful! I would try it with Frankincense.
Ooo, I like this recipe! I made this and it turned out awesome! I put tea tree, bergamot, frankincense and lavender in mine and it is devine!
I would love to try this recipe with eucalyptus and spearmint. I will get my little daughter to help as she is loving making products with the oils
3 dropsRose,
3 drops onycha
1 drop Frankincense
1 drop Orange
Warm and uplifting.
Just received my kit and I can't wait to try this recipe! What great gifts these would make for the holidays and a way to share the love of oils!
I would use lemon and lavender in this body butter :)
I would use Vetiver, for a smokey spiced scent and Stressaway to sweeten it up, with that touch of vanilla that I love so much!!! 😍
Frankincense and Lavender!
My favorite young living essential oil to use in my cream is patchouli!!!
