Homemade | DIY Whipped coconut oil body butter

It's not even truly autumn yet and already I'm hearing people complain about dry, itchy skin. I started doing some research on a natural solution, and looking for something I could make with what oils and natural stuff I have and decided on a whipped coconut oil body butter that was super easy and quick to make!

I'll admit it smells more like Christmas but I'm going to make another batch with a more "autumn" like scent.



Here we go:

1c, extra virgin coconut oil
20 drops peppermint essential oil
20 drops argan oil (or jojoba)

Take your coconut oil in a medium size bowl and mix with electric mixer fit about 8-10min, until whipped and forming peaks.
Add your essential oil and argan and mix for about another 2min.
Store in a glass container with a tight lid,  and refrigerate until solid.
Afterwards, store at 75 degrees or cooler.
Use a large popsicle stick to get body butter out as to not contaminate the whole jar.



Enjoy!!!
