Body butter is a creamy, thick butter you can apply to your skin in lieu of a moisturizer.

Directions

Step 1
To make this body butter, you first need to melt your shea butter. It is much easier to do this in a double boiler, instead of attempting to microwave it. Heat it up in the double boiler until it melts, then remove it from the stove. While the shea butter cools, you can go ahead and start adding your carrier oil and essential oils. The amount used depends on how much shea butter you have. When it is completely cooled and mixed together, carefully transfer the butter to an airtight container. Place it in the fridge to chill, then remove it and put it in a room-temperature location. Chilling it will help it reach a creamy consistency.

Usage

You will use this body butter just like any lotion or moisturizer by grabbing some with your fingers and rubbing it onto your skin.
