Making organic lavender body butter is a wonderful way to nourish your skin and enjoy the soothing scent of lavender. Here's a simple recipe for you to follow:
Ingredients:
1. Organic Shea Butter: Shea butter is rich in vitamins and fatty acids that can moisturize and nourish the skin.
2. Organic Coconut Oil: Coconut oil is another excellent moisturizer that also helps the body butter have a smooth consistency.
3. Organic Lavender Essential Oil: Lavender essential oil adds a pleasant fragrance and has calming and soothing properties.
4. Optional Additions: You can also add other organic ingredients like vitamin E oil, jojoba oil, or almond oil for extra skin benefits.
Since this is an anhydrous product so there is no preservative required.
Instructions:
1. Gather your ingredients:
- 1/2 cup organic shea butter
- 1/4 cup organic coconut oil
- 15-20 drops organic lavender essential oil
- Optional: 1 teaspoon organic vitamin E oil.
2. Prepare a double boiler:
- Fill a small saucepan with a few inches of water and bring it to a simmer. Place a heat-resistant glass or metal bowl on top of the saucepan, ensuring it doesn't touch the water. This setup creates a double boiler to melt your ingredients gently.
3. Melt the shea butter and coconut oil:
- Add the organic shea butter and organic coconut oil to the bowl in the double boiler. Allow them to melt slowly over low heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden or silicone spatula.
4. Remove from heat:
- Once the shea butter and coconut oil have melted and combined, remove the bowl from the heat source and let it cool slightly. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the bowl in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes.
5. Add lavender essential oil and optional oils:
- When the mixture has cooled but is still soft, add the organic lavender essential oil and any optional oils you'd like to include, such as vitamin E oil or other carrier oils. Stir well to combine evenly.
6. Whip the mixture:
- Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the mixture until it becomes light and fluffy. This may take several minutes, so be patient. Let it cool down so that the mixture thickens. You can also keep it in the freezer for 3 mins and whip it again.
7. Store in containers:
- Transfer your lavender body butter into clean, airtight containers, such as glass jars or plastic tubs. Make sure the containers are sterilized and dry before filling them.
8. Let it set:
- Allow your body butter to cool and solidify at room temperature or in the refrigerator. This may take a few hours.
9. Apply and enjoy:
- Use your organic lavender body butter as needed by applying it to your skin, particularly after a shower or bath.
Your homemade organic lavender body butter is now ready to use. Make sure to store it in a cool, dry place to prevent it from melting or becoming too soft. Enjoy the skin-nourishing benefits and the calming aroma of lavender!
