Ylang Ylang Whipped Body Butter

Sweet body butter made from all natural ingredients. You will have big problems with resisting to taste it 😀

But rather just use it for your skin, it will thank you. 

Body butter is bit different from body lotion, because usually it doesn´t contain water, so it´s more solid and rich. It looks more like margarine. I don´t have many experience with the ratio of butters and oils in such recipes, but I wouldn´t go under 70% for butters (including coconut oil). If you have other experience, share it with us in the comments. 

Here is my recipe: 

                  
              + mixer
                bowl
                scale
                spoon 
                pipette

The process: 
Measure the oils and butters Melt them in microwave or in water bath and wait till they set. (I put the mixture in the fridge, so I have to check it every minute, so it´s not too solid again) 

You mix the oils and butters with a mixer for 5-6 minutes, till it´s all fluffy and creamy. Add vitamin E and essential oil and mix for another 2-3 minutes. If you don´t want very intense scent, these 3 drops of EO are quite enough. I also used unrefined cocoa butter, which smells so good.

Now you just put the made butter in a jar or container and you are done. It starts to melt with temperature around 24℃, so then you have to leave it in the fridge. 

The combination of Ylang Ylang and the chocolate smell of cocoa butter is amazing. Skin is soft and hydrated. You definitely have to try this!
