What you need:
1 cup coconut oil
a few drops of your favorite essential oils for fragrance (optional)
What to do:
1. Put all ingredients into a mixing bowl. Note: Do not melt the coconut oil first. It will only whip up if it’s solid. A little below room temperature is ideal
2. Mix on high speed with a wire whisk for 6-7 minutes or until whipped into a light, airy consistency.
3. Spoon the whipped coconut oil body butter into a glass jar and cover tightly. Store at cool place, or in the refrigerator if your house is so warm it melts the oil.
Tip: An electric hand mixer or stand mixer works best. A blender or food processor will not work with this coconut oil recipe, because they tend to warm the oil too much and prevent it from whipping up.
Note: Your whipped coconut oil should stay relatively soft, even at colder temperatures. If it’s really cold, it will become a little more solid, but not rock hard like it normally does.

I want to make a spray for my hair. Can I mix coconut oil, olive oil and avocado oil together?
I want to do this, can you add a few drops of other oils to help enhance the coconut oil? Thank you
Hi Kamara,
Yes, you sure can. Not too much though, that may change the consistency.
Just whipped up my first batch. Thank you.
