How to Make Your Own Body Butters

July 25, 2018

Summer is here and you’re probably baring a bit more skin than other times of the year. If you’re like me then you want your skin to be soft and silky. Using a body butter on your skin can help as well as staying hydrated by drinking lots of water every day. I’ve put together a list of my top 15 DIY body butters recipes found on the web. These are all so easy to make, even if you’re not typically a do-it-yourself type of person. You can alter these however you want to make them suit you better if you need to.

15 DIY Body Butters to Make at Home:

  1. Lemongrass Whipped Body Butter – Juggling Act Mama
  2. DIY Mint Chocolate Chip Body Butter – Six Dollar Family
  3. Whipped Pumpkin Spice Body Butter – Humblebee & Me
  4. Coconut Lime Whipped Body Butter – A Cultivated Nest
  5. Lavender Body Lotion – Homemade for Elle
  6. Magnesium Body Butter Recipe – Turning the Clock Back
  7. Homemade Shea Body Butter – Practically Functional
  8. Almond Vanilla Body Butter – A Spark of Creativity
  9. Whipped Unicorn Body Butter – Busy Being Jennifer
  10. Herb and Citrus Body Butter – The Homespun Hydrangea
  11. Whipped Sleepytime Rub – The Paleo Mama
  12. Homemade Whipped Body Butter for Soft Skin – Mainly Homemade
  13. Vanilla and Cacao Homemade Body Butter – Rubies & Radishes
  14. Peppermint Cloud Body Butter Recipe – Mountain Rose Herbs
  15. Homemade Cinnamon Vanilla Whipped Body Butter – A Cultivated Nest

You can buy these ingredients locally or you can order everything needed for these homemade body butters on Amazon. They have everything needed and shipping is fast. I recommend making larger batches and putting the body butter in small pretty jars. You can even make extra to give as gifts and put the product into cute little mason jars with pretty homemade labels or tags.  I’m certain than all of your friends would love these too.

Have you ever tried DIY Body Butters? Would you consider doing it now that you’ve seen how easy it is to do?

    I made my own body butters, put them in a small mason jar with a cute crystal top and gave them to my girlfriends last Christmas. They loved them!

    Some of the recipes sound delicious actually. This would be a good way for me to control the type of fragrances that I can tolerate.

One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack-It Jacket. It’s a great option, especially when I’m on the go! #ad

It has adjustable elastic to cinch in the waist, a hood when I need it in the rain (this hair is a lot of work so I have to protect it)!😅

And the best part is that it can be rolled up into its zipper pouch and tossed it into my bag so I have it when I really need it! It came in handy on my boat ride yesterday!

It comes in several different colors as well as inclusive sizing, so there’s a jacket for everyone! Oh, and it makes a great gift too!

Just comment SHOP and I’ll send the link to your messages or use the link below to shop the Pack-It Jacket from @coldwatercreek 💖

Looking back, I wish I had traveled more and been Looking back, I wish I had traveled more and been more adventurous in my younger years. Despite visiting many distant lands, I often did so reluctantly. However, my mindset has shifted over the past 10 years, and I now yearn to explore more of our world.

We’re currently in Jackson Hole, with upcoming trips planned for Summer and Fall, including another trip to Europe.

River cruising in Europe has been my favorite travel so far. We’ve taken 3 different river cruises and you can see some of those moments in my saved highlights.💖

Are there any cities or countries on your travel bucket list?✈️

Who else is ready for Summer?😎👙🍉🌻👗⛱️🧴☀️

There’s just something about the long slow days and nights of summer that brings back so many fond memories over the past 60 years.

Next week is Memorial Day weekend which I think officially kicks off the season with outdoor bbqs, swimming all day, popsicles, sundresses and sleeveless tops, beach days, vacations and unfortunately, mosquitoes.

What’s one of your favorite summer memories?🥰

I had a pinch me moment this weekend because I had I had a pinch me moment this weekend because I had the pleasure of meeting Julie Vos, founder of her gorgeous namesake jewelry brand.💖✨💖

Her one and only retail location debuted in Dallas, Texas  and you’d better believe I was there for it.💖 

Not only is Julie an amazing designer/artist, but she is so kind. She greeted and spoke to every person in the store.

Each piece of her beautiful jewelry is made from high quality 24k gold plate over nickel-free brass and sealed to prevent tarnish.

There’s something for everyone’s style. I may have tried on every piece in the store!😅

May is skin cancer awareness and melanoma awarenes May is skin cancer awareness and melanoma awareness month. This is my reminder to you to wear your sunscreen every single day and get annual skin checks. Early detection is key to a good outcome.

Both of these products from Beekman 1802 are keeping my skin healthy, hydrated and moisturized, and most importantly, protected from uva and uvb rays from the sun.☀️ In fact, goat milk has 31 active ingredients that strengthen the skin barrier!🐐

Have you had your skin checked by a dermatologist in the last year? If not, please make an appointment now.

You can always use code Stacie20 on the @beekman1802 website for a discount. See the link in my profile or comment SHOP.☀️

This post is in honor of my mom who we lost to melanoma in 2012. She would’ve turned 83 tomorrow.💖😇
