Beeswax Body Butter

Beeswax Body Butter

Beeswax has many beneficial health and beauty properties. Using beeswax in body butter helps create a light coating over the skin that traps natural moisture in the skin. This is a great product if you have dry skin.

Ingredients:

  • 6 ounces of coconut oil
  • 3 ounces of shea butter
  • 1.5-ounce beeswax
  • 2 tsp of corn starch
  • 6 drops of vitamin E oil
  • 12 drops of lavender essential oil
  • Double boiler (see instructions down below if you don’t have that)
  • Hand blender

Directions:

  1. Using the double boiler or if you don’t have a double boil place a smaller pot in a bigger pot that is filled with one inch of water. Bring the water to a low simmer. Melt coconut oil, shea butter, beeswax, and corn starch gently until all are liquid. Blend well to mix ingredients.
  2. Remove the top pot, and let it cool for 3 minutes. Add the vitamin E, and essential oil then stir well.
  3. Place in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes.
  4. Use a mixer to whip the ingredients together until they cool and thicken. Make sure that the mixture is thicker than lotion.

Enjoy your body butter!
