Homemade Body Butter

I love a quick and easy homemade skin care recipe.  If it has lots of ingredients or to many prep steps I zone out and I’m not interested.  I’m all about Less ingredients and less prep.

Below is my super easy Body Butter that I use every night.  You can make it as a balm like consistency as per the above image or you can whip it more with a hand mixer to get that creamy whipped finish as seen in the below image.  Read More

INGREDIENTS 
1 cup she butter
1/2 cup coconut oil 
1/4 cup almond, jojoba or macadamia oil 
Dash of Vitamin E
Scent with your fav essential oil (optional)


PREP
Mix all ingredients in a bowl with a hand mixer or a wooden spoon.  If you want it as a whipped consistency use the hand mixer until you get soft peaks like whipped cream.
Tranfer to a glass jar or aluminium pot. Pop on the lid and enjoy!!
Mine lasts roughly 3~4 months used every night. A little goes along way!
