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!

Love diy great for Christmas gifts Cedarwood would be great for night the routine.
Patchouli, Lavendar and Clarity!
I'll be making some of this soon since it's getting drier here in Colorado! I'm going to try some Manuka, frankincense and lavender essential oils!
I would use Peppermint. The smell energizes me in the mornings after I shower.
Frankincense would be delightful! It's definitely one of my favorites for focus!
Frankincense & Geranium & Neroli & Myrrh or even Grapefruit for my Whipped Body Butter
Grapefruit and tangerine mix
I would do Peppermint, to be energizing when I get out of the shower in the mornings.
This is awesome! I have been experimenting a lot with different oils and have been loving making all the different coconut oil rubs and roller ball oils! I'm excited to continue growing my dream while growing team! #livelovelaughYL #YLallItalkabout@work #changinglives
I would use grapefruit and geranium during the summer and bergamot and orange in the fall.
