Dry skin: Make your own body butter

It’s no secret that body butters are loaded with all the essential ingredients for super soft skin. Here’s how to make your own scrumptious body butter at home with a few simple ingredients full of anti-oxidants and powerful moisturizers:

Add 1 cup of softened coconut oil, 2 teaspoons of baker’s cocoa powder, and 1 teaspoon of cornstarch into a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, dissolve 1 packet of plain gelatin in 1 cup of cold water and then combine the mixtures from both bowls. Using a high-speed electric mixer, mix on high until creamy and then place the mixture into the refrigerator for five minutes.

That’s it. Your homemade body butter that will keep for up to two weeks in the fridge for a fraction of the cost of Estee Lauder or Oil of Olay.
