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 used Jasmine and Peace and Calming in this recipe. I'm in love. Now my diffuser necklace matches my lotion double whammy couldn't get any better. It's like my own little chill pill with my own personal favorite scent that I feel empowers me. Thank You for this lovely recipe. so simple yet so wonderful.
A mix of Orange, Tangerine, & Peppermint!
Ooooh!! Sounds so nice. I would love a nighttime body butter made of lavender and chamomile to slather on after a nice shower and help me sleep!
I' going to try this with lemon and lavender. I think citrus fresh would work well too because it is so uplifting.
Lavender, Frankincense, Myrrh
Now that the sun is less intense and I am inside more often, I LOVE to use bergamot. It helps to lift my spirits and my skin is amazingly smooth!!
Orange and Cedarwood! My hubbies fav. Love this recipe... Thank you!
