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 can't wait to try this recipe! I think I'll use Stress Away for my first batch.
Love this
My favorite oils are Vetiver, Orange and Vanilla. I can't wait to try them in a body butter!!
Frankincense, Myrrh and a little drop of Lime....Love!
Think I would like to try copiaba and pan away
I would definitely use lemon grass for summer wear, wonderful for sitting on the deck. For winter, I would experiment with some of the oils that I love, but seldom use. What a wonderful way to use frankincense and pan away.
I would use Peppermint and En-er-gee for the pick me up, and a little Frankincense as a treat for my skin!
I would like myrrh, melrose, rose, along with ceederwood, lavender and frankincense
My Favorite diy body lotion scent is Tangerine!
