What you put on your body is just as important as what you put in it. Your skin is your largest organ—and it absorbs much of what you apply to it. That means your daily skincare routine can either nourish your body…or silently increase your toxic burden. Over time, this daily exposure adds up—and can interfere with hormone balance, immune function, detoxification, and more. That’s where this homemade whipped body butter comes in. It’s incredibly easy to make and will deeply nourish your skin with healing fats and pure essential oils. The base of this recipe is raw shea butter, a rich, creamy fat extracted from the nut of the African shea tree. This body butter is not only a nourishing skincare product—it’s a simple, powerful way to reduce your exposure to everyday toxins while honoring your body with something lovingly homemade.

I know I predominantly share recipes here, but I have decided to begin sharing more than just recipes, because our health and the health of the planet is all connected in this intricate web we call life.
