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 would add Frankincense and Lavender to the body butter.
I would use Bergamot and Orange. Love that aroma!
Love orange, geranium and patchouli combo. A little ppp and royal sandalwood would be nice in there as well. Very spa-esk 💕
Great idea for gift giving.
Lavender melrose and bergamot

I would choose myrrh, lavender, and frankincense.
I make my own all the time! 😊 I use coconut oil, jojoba oil, shea, and then lemon, lavender, and frankincense.
Ohhhhh Sacred Mountain would be heavenly in this!!!
I love bergamot, lavender and clary sage together so I am going to put that combo together
I would use Roman chamomile to make the body butter and use it on my kids after their nightly bath, tthsts would hopefully help relax them before bedtime.
