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!

Joy is one of my favorite oils. This is my choice to add to my body butter.
Love it
For winter, I like a combo of orange and clove.
I cannot wait to try this recipe. I am going to try a combination of lavender and chamomile.
Lavender and peppermint or Stress Away and spearmint!
Body butter with ylang ylang or warm scents of cinnamon, clove
I'm going to use orange, lavender, and jasmine!
First off, this sounds AHHHmazing!!! I would love to try this recipe with some Gentle Baby in there!!!
Lavender and lemon.
I would probably choose White Angelica...my favorite! :)
