0 Comments

 
Picture
1 cup coconut oil
1 teaspoon Vitamin E Oil (optional)
3 drops Wild Orange Essential Oil
3 drops Lemon Essential Oil
2 drops Melaleuca Essential Oil

Put all ingredients into a mixing bowl. Do not melt the coconut oil first. It will only whip up if it’s solid. Mix on high speed with a wire whisk for 6-7 minutes or until whipped into a light, airy consistency. Spoon the whipped coconut oil body butter into a glass jar and cover tightly. Store at room temperature, or in the refrigerator if your house is so warm it melts the oil.
