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!

Peppermint, frankincense, lavender, eucalyptus.
This month I did Melrose and Lavender
I can't wait to make a whipped lotion with my new. Title of peace and calming!
I love grapefruit and frankincense in my body butter.
I use orange and cinnamon oils with vanilla. It's the sweet smell of a cinnamon roll.
I'd would try Dream Catcher.
I am going to make my body butter with JOY which is my happiness oil. It makes me feel well grounded and grateful for each new day. Thank you, Young Living, for the beautiful blend. Joy‼
I think I'll try making this body butter! Sounds AWESOME!!! I love Thieves, so I'll definitely use that; and maybe I'll make a second batch with lemongrass since I love that one too! Thanks for the recipe! What a great idea!!!!
I made one for my grandfather with lavender frank and myrrh. He loves it.
I love the mix of Lang-ylang, vetiver, lavender, geranium and orange. These oils are giving a famntastic aroma, a bit earthy yet so floral and sweet.
