Homemade body balm

With just five ingredients, you can make a creamy, buttery body balm – quick, easy, and completely natural.

Delicately scented cocoa butter, nourishing shea butter, and exotic coconut oil mixed into a harmonious balm make for a unique pampering experience.

Ingredients:

  • 100 g cocoa butter
  • 50 g coconut oil
  • 200 g shea butter
  • 50 g jojoba oil (alternatively, a liquid plant-based oil: almond, macadamia, etc.)
  • 10 drops natural essential oil

Preparation:

Melt the cocoa butter and coconut oil (at max. 42°C). Place all ingredients into a blender and blend slowly until you have a smooth, homogeneous cream. (An immersion blender works as well.)

Pour the cream into a bowl and place in the freezer for 2 hours or in the refrigerator for 5 hours.

Mix with a hand mixer until creamy so that the texture becomes nice and "fluffy."

Now fill into jars/containers.

Also great as a gift!
