There are many reasons to make your own BodyButter. Why I make it?
1.) To avoid chemicals. (
Skin is our largest organ and it really does matter what you put on.)
2.) Very often on a sensitive skin the best products are the ones you can eat.
3.) It is much cheaper.
Usually I just buy a bottle of some oil for cooking and use it.
Sometimes I make BodyButter. This is how it happens.
I bought 425ml pack of
Urtekram's cocoa oil. I melt it in a kettle and mixed in some thistle extract I made
last August when I had some fun with thistles.
I poured it all into washed and dried milk carton and let it solidify in fridge. You can use for example olive or other oils to make the mix.
Then I chopped it to smaller pieces and wrapped to cellophane. I used tape to fasten it all. The crumbs I stored into old used can. I warmed them a bit to be able to smooth the crumbs in better.
