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 will add frankincense......its my favorite oil for my skin.
Excited to try making this!
My dream body butter would have Frankincense, Myrrh & Rose essential oils! However I will try Frankincense, Myrrh & Palmarosa essential oils in this body butter recipe based on what I have available. Yum!
My favorite oil for Skin care products is lavender.! I use lavender for everything.!
Would enjoy this package.! Been wanting to try the Mirah shave cream.! 😍😍
I would probably try Manuka, Lavender, Geranium, Myrrh. I just might make this for Christmas gifts!
Ahhh! Love homemade body butter! I'm a big citrus fan so would try citrus fresh or orange. Love Frank for the skin so would like to add that as well.
Frankincense! Love all the great benefits from Frank! Heck... I might make all 3 so I have options! Lavender for myself just before bed and Cedarwood for my husband!! Yes!
They all sound great.
