Instructions

Melt the coconut oil and shea or mango butter in a double boiler over low heat.

Once melted, remove from heat and let cool until semi-solid, but still soft, (~2 hours). Move to the fridge to hasten the process.

When semi-solid, use a standing or handheld mixer with whisk attachments to whip the mixture into a cream, approximately 2 minutes.

Add the ground cinnamon, vitamin E oil, and essential oils (if using). Whisk a few times more to incorporate.

Scoop the body butter into an airtight jar. Store in a cool, dry place for up to six months. Use every day for divine hydration!
