D.I.Y HELLO DELICIOUSNESS WHIPPED BODY BUTTER

Who doesn't love a rich and moisturising body butter?

But add a beautiful Essential Oil to the mix and dress it up in a beautiful amber jar with a handmade label and you have an extra special gift.

This recipe contains Shea Butter which us always a favourite of mine.

HOW TO:

• 75g Shea Butter
• 75g Coconut Oil
• 50g Fractionated coconut oil
• 10 drops of Wild Orange Essential Oil
• 10 drops of Grapefruit Essential Oil
• Nice gift Jar
• Avery label
• Digital stamps for label design from Kellie Stamps.

HOW TO:

• I used a Thermomix but you could easily make it in a double boiler on the stove - top
• Add Shea butter... coconut oil and fractionated coconut oil into the Thermomix bowl and melt 4-5 minutes/70C/speed 1-2 until its melted.
• Allow to cool and then add the Essential oils - Mix 10-15 sec/ speed 3 until well mixed.
• Place the bowl in the fridge until almost solid. It must feel thick and firm.
• Use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Whip 30 - 40 seconds/ speed 5 until nice and fluffy.
• Transfer to a lovely jar
• Apply a handmade label - I created my label using digital stamp designs from Kellie Stamps.
