1
Weigh shea butter, coconut oil, and almond oil into a heat-safe bowl.
2
Melt gently in a water bath or double boiler at ~50C until fully liquid.
3
Remove from heat. Add Vitamin E and lavender essential oil. Stir well.
4
Place in the fridge for 30 - 60 minutes until semi-solid (like soft butter consistency).
5
Whip with an electric hand mixer for 5 - 10 minutes until fluffy and light.
6
Spoon into jars. Label and date.

•NOTE: This is a whipped anhydrous body butter; the beginner guide covers emulsion-based products. No preservative or pH is needed.
•The key to whipping is getting the right semi-solid consistency before mixing. Too liquid and it will not whip; too hard and it will be lumpy.
•In warm climates, this may melt. Store in a cool place or add a small amount of beeswax for stability.
•Lavender essential oil is capped at 1.5% to stay within the guide range for body products.
•Shelf life: 3 - 6 months if stored properly (no water = no microbial growth).
