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 am definitely going to whip up some of this:) Thinking a great Christmas gift for some special people😉. Maybe a little Rose Oil and YlangYlang!
I love lavender, but might try ylang ylang
StressAway, Of course!
I would use rose and sandalwood, my two favorite oils😀😀😀😀😀😍😍😍😍😍
I think this would be really good if made with Joy.
While I do believe I would completely use the same combo, I do think I would love to try something with Bergamot, Cedarwood, and Northern Lights Black Spruce since it's fall and reminds me of Autumn.
Cedarwood and frank!!
I love the combo of Peppermint and Rosemary for my body butter.
