This luxurious coffee body butter moisturizes and tones skin! Use it daily on problem areas to reduce the appearance of cellulite and uneven skin.
Homemade whipped body butter is simple to make and can often be made with butters and oils you have in your kitchen. Essential oils can be added or you can infuse herbs and spices into your oils.
With this recipe I used coffee, which is amazing for your skin and can help to tone and tighten problem areas.
Coffee infused body butter ingredients
Just four ingredients here, so you’ll want to make sure they’re great – this is stuff you’re putting all over your body, after all!
- 1/4 Cup Organic Coffee Beans
- 1/2 Cup Virgin Coconut Oil (I recommend either making your own coconut oil at home – which is super easy to do! – or buying one of the handful of top coconut oil brands.)
- 1/2 Cup Cocoa Butter
- 1/2 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
And once you have your ingredients, it’s time to get started!
How to make coffee infused body butter
Infused oils are incredible and can be used in both skincare and baking. I’ve made calendula infused coconut oil as well as vanilla coconut oil. Infusing coffee into coconut oil is simple and can be done in under a half hour.
To start you’ll melt 1/2 cup of virgin coconut oil in a saucepan on low heat. Add 1/4 cup of whole organic coffee beans. Keep the oil on low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Use a fine mesh strainer to strain the coconut oil from the coffee beans.
Next, melt the cocoa butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add olive oil and coffee infused coconut oil.
Refrigerate the oils for 25-30 minutes, or until the oils just begin to solidify.
Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the oils into butter. This will take 10-15 minutes to achieve a soft and fluffy texture.
Scoop the coffee body butter into a storage container and store in a cool dry place. Use daily on dry or problem areas.
