Take coconut oil, cocoa butter, and shea butter in a bowl and melt the oils using a double boiler.
Remove from heat once melted.
Now mix calendula oil and let the mixture cool until it’s opaque (to speed this is you can put it in the fridge, but don’t let it solidify completely).
Next, it’s time to whip the melted oils into body butter. Whip until the mixture is well combined and it becomes light and fluffy – about 5-7 minutes.
You’re finished whipping when the body butter can stick to a spoon when held upside-down.
Now, add essential oil and vitamin E oil to the mixture and mix everything well.
Transfer to a small glass container or jar and store in a cool place.
How To Apply
Apply it whenever needed.
Notes
1. You can keep this body butter for 3-4 months and if refrigerated can be stored for a longer period. 2. If you want to make body butter in large quantities, you can use NeoDefend preservative to store it for a longer period. A preservative is very important in recipes if you want to make the lotion or butter stay for a longer period because it can form mold and bacteria. NeoDefend is very gentle for the skin, unlike typical preservatives. It is non-GMO and certified organic. Each recipe only takes a tiny bit, a little bit goes a long way.
