This DIY Body Butter Can be Custom Scented With Your Favorite Essential Oils
Body butter is a real beauty treat. Not only does it feel luxurious and moisturize like a dream, it smells so good. Instead of buying it premade from the mall, whip up a batch at home using all-natural ingredients and whatever essential oil you prefer. The scent possibilities are endless!
Ingredients
4 oz. raw shea butter
4 oz. raw cacao butter
4 oz. raw coconut butter
Essential oil of choice (lavender, pink grapefruit, lemon, etc.)
Other Materials You’ll Need
- Heat source
- 16-ounce mason jar
- Wooden spoon
- Blender or stand mixer
Directions
- In double boiler, melt shea butter, cocoa butter and coconut butter. (Note: Watch carefully and stir occasionally with wooden spoon to prevent sticking or burning.)
- Remove pot from heat and let mixture cool slightly (2 to 3 minutes). Transfer mixture to a blender or mixing bowl (if using stand mixer or handheld mixer).
- Add several drops of essential oil and blend or whip the mixture until smooth and fluffy.
- Transfer mixture to jar. Store in a cool, dry place. (Note: Body butter may melt at temperatures of 76 degrees F or above, so be sure to store it in a cool area as far away from heat as possible.)
