Ingredients

Instructions

  • Melt the Butters and Beeswax

    Add cranberry butter, mango butter, and beeswax to a heat-safe container. Melt using a double boiler until everything is fully liquid. Make sure the beeswax is completely melted.
  • Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
  • Add Fractionated coconut oil, Arrowroot powder, Fragrance oil and Vitamin E
    Stir everything together by hand until fully combined.

  • Let It Cool Completely

    Allow the mixture to cool until thick and opaque.

  • Whip Until Light and Fluffy

    Using a hand mixer, whip until the texture becomes light, airy, and smooth.

  • Optional Color

    For a more finished look, you can add a small amount of light pink mica before whipping.
    This gives the body butter a soft blush color that looks especially nice with the natural cranberry specks.

  • Transfer to Jars

    Spoon into clean containers and allow it to fully set.
