Ivy Charlaine Whipped Body Butter


This is the perfect follow up to the post I did last week, regarding my obsession with the health benefits of natural & raw products. I was sooooo excited to get this gift from Nicole (Ivy Charlaine). She was experimenting with blending different oils to make body butter and heres what she used:
  • Lavendar oil
  • Raw shea butter
  • Coconut oil
  • Olive oil
It smells SO GOOD. Its also unbelievably light. You can use it anywhere from your skin to your hair, and a little bit goes such a long way. I hope you keep making more of these, Nicole, because mine is almost gone! lol
