If you’re like me, you love to nourish your body with clean ingredients. Try this Well&Co favourite, and let your skin soften and hydrate in this gentle and aromatic body butter. We also love this body butter because you can curate it from the comfort of your home, and as holiday season nears, this treat can make for a great gift, too!
ITEMS:
– 1 cup organic coconut oil
– 1 cup organic solid coca butter (not lotion)
– 10 to 15 drops of Lavender Essential Oil (another great oils to use is Frankincense)
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 set, but not harden.
– Stir in essential oil
– Using an electric hand mixer, whip until firm peaks form, about 10 minutes.
– Transfer to a seal-able jar or container, and store at room temperature to avoid melting or solidifying.
– Gently massage on your body for a little self-care treatment. Enjoy the nourishment because you’re worth it.
