Homemade Whipped Body Butter Recipe

Step 1

Melt the shea butter, coconut oil and sweet almond oil in a saucepan or double boiler over medium heat.

Step 2

Add essential oils and stir to mix well.

Step 3

Transfer to a mixing bowl and place in fridge to let cool. Allow mixture to cool completely until the oils solidify (I usually leave mine in the fridge overnight... You can place it in the freezer to cool quicker, but be sure to set a timer so you don't forget about it and let it freeze!)

Step 4

Once mixture is completely cooled, use a hand beater or stand mixer to whip the mixture.

Step 5

Spoon into a clean Mason jar and seal with a lid (you can reuse an old lid for this).

Step 6

Add a pretty label and/or tie a piece of twine around the lid to dress it up (You can grab the printable labels I use from my Free Resource Library) and you've got a beautiful homemade gift (for yourself or someone else!)
