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 Melrose.
I'm wanting to try the Lavender and Cedarwood blended in this together for a relaxing night body butter. The perfect bedtime massage for rambunctious littles!
Any EO would be wonderful to use. Make several batches with different oils. stress Away, lavender, etc. don't settle for just one!!!
Geranium and orange! ❤
I think I will try Joy in my body butter. Thanks for the recipe!

I would use clary sage. It is one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
I'd like to try it with the Sara blend. Or maybe geranium and orange...
