What are the benefits of whipped body butter?
Whipped body is a concentrated moisturizer that contains no water, only rich, nourishing oils and butters.
- The natural ingredients moisturize your skin and prevent it from becoming dry, cracked, and flakey.
- Whipped body is excellent for all types of skin and can be customized for your own needs. You can find a recipe for sensitive skin, dry skin, or anything between.
- Since whipped body doesn’t contain water, it has a long shelf life and can last for as long as six months.
Ingredients:
While individual recipes will vary in what natural ingredients they include, the basic methodology for making whipped body butter remains the same:
- Melt the natural butter in a double boiler, stirring continuously until melted.
- Allow the liquid to thicken as it cools down.
- Once cooled, whip the butter until it is light, creamy, and fluffy.
- Add essential oils to your carrier oils.
- Slowly pour the oils into the whipped butter and incorporate the two.
- Add the oils gradually to avoid the mixture splitting and to ensure it does not become too wet.
- Once the liquid oils have been incorporated into the butter, add the cornstarch and whip the mixture again.
- Whip continuously until the body butter stands in soft peaks.
- Pour the body butter into a glass storage jar with an airtight lid.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
