DIY Whipped Peppermint Body Butter Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup shea butter
- 1/4 cup cocoa butter
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 cup sweet almond oil
- 10-20 drops peppermint essential oil
Directions:
- Combine all ingredients except for the peppermint essential oil in a double boiler and melt.
- While the ingredients are melting, stir.
- Once melted, remove the mixture and let it partially set. If you're a little impatient, you can stick the mixture in the freezer.
- Add in the peppermint essential oil and whip the mixture with a stand mixer or a hand mixer until it becomes a whipped-like consistency.
- Scoop into a clean, airtight jar and use all over body!
Note: if your home is very warm, the body butter might melt a little bit, but if it does, simply whip it up again! Can be stored in the fridge or at room temperature and makes for the perfect Christmas gift!
