Commercial beauty products are loaded with toxic chemicals. I decided to try whipping up my own recipe for body butter to moisturize my skin and have something a little extra for my aches and pains! You can create all kinds of butters for all sorts of ailments just by changing which Essential Oils you add to them! This one is a KEEPER! I've included links where you can buy the ingredients to make you own! Enjoy!
Ingredients:
1/2 Cup Shea Butter (Amazon: http://tinyurl.com/k4taemv )
1/4 Cup Coconut Oil (Amazon: http://tinyurl.com/k2da5jt )
1/4 Cup Sweet Almond Oil (Amazon: http://tinyurl.com/kfhppcg )
10 drops of Deep Blue Essential Oil (doTERRA)
Procedure:
Measure out the oils and shea butter and place in a oven safe glass bowl (Pyrex). Fill a pot with a couple inches of water and place glass bowl inside. Do not let the water get inside the bowl. Whisk the ingredients over medium heat until melted and translucent. Remove from heat and place in the refrigerator until it's solid again (about 2 hours).
Remove from refrigerator. Whip into a buttery consistency with en electric mixer (2-3 minutes or so). Then spoon in to 4 ounce jelly jars. Cover with lid and refrigerate another hour.
*This will keep for about 6 months at room temperature. It may soften if it gets warm. Just refrigerate for a bit if this happens and it will be back to a more solid consistency.
