DIY: Homemade Whipped Body Butter

Ingredients:
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup cocoa butter
 1/2 cup shea butter
 1/2 cup sweet almond oil
 1 tsp vitamin E oil
 2 – 4 drops essential oils 

Directions:
1. Place coconut oil, cocoa butter, and shea butter in a medium sized pot over low heat. Stir to combine until it melts completely. Remove from heat.
2. Thoroughly mix in the sweet almond, vitamin E,  and essential oils.
3. Chill in your refrigerator for an hour or two. You want the mixture to firm up without getting too hard.
4. Once chilled, use a stand mixer or hand mixer to mix until you get a decadent whipped consistency. Scoop into a jar or container. It should last for 6 – 12 months at room temperature.
