posted in Beauty on 5/11/2016

Ingredients

3 parts coconut oil
1 part shea butter
1 tsp witch hazel
1/2 tsp vitamin e oil
Optional Oil Add-ins; Use what you have:
7-8 drops juniper berry essential oil
7-8 drops rosemary essential oil
7-8 drops frankincense essential oil
7-8 drops lavender essential oil
7-8 drops grapefruit essential oil
7-8 drops cedarwood essential oil
4-5 drops carrot seed essential oil

Instructions

Using a whisk attachment, whip the room temperature coconut oil with the shea butter until it has a frosting-like consistency. Add your essential oils of choice and whip until they are well mixed in. Transfer mixture to a small glass jar and store at room temperature. Slather over your legs after a shower or after dry brushing for best results!

Add all ingredients to a stand mixer. Coconut oil must be at room temperature- Not too hard and brittle, but not too soft or melted. Whip the mixture several minutes until its light and fluffy. It looked like creamy frosting and made me hungry for some cake..If it looks like this you’re done!

Bonus tip! If you dry brush before a shower, and apply this cream to your legs after your shower, your legs will feel amazing. Exfoliated and soft and wonderful. Hope you love it!

All these ingredients aren’t completely essential. If you’re missing some, don’t fret- Just use what you have. It’ll still be a great moisturizer! Here a list of ingredients with a little more info on each one! This will also be helpful in deciding which oils you want in your cream.

Coconut Oil is amazing. Its super moisturizing and is my favorite oil for moisturizing. The texture of it makes it a perfect base for stuff like this. It has also been known to fix and help so many skin issues.

Shea Butter is a great natural source of vitamins A, E, and F. It reduces inflammation, and it also gives your skin nutrients to help produce collagen. As we age our bodies produce less collagen which is why we start to see changes as we grow up like cellulite, and eventually wrinkles.

Witch Hazel is an awesome natural astringent which helps tighten the skin. It also helps with razor burn, bruises, and varicose veins, as well as locking in moisture!

Vitamin E Oil is awesome for skin! It is known for healing and/or diminishing the appearance of scars & stretch marks and any unsightly mark that may occur on your legs! It is also very anti-aging so helps treat and prevent wrinkles.

Juniper Berry Essential Oil helps promote circulation, and also aids in removing toxins from the body which is why it is often recommended for cellulite. It is also a natural astringent, tightening the skin and keeping it youthful.

Rosemary Essential Oil is another great oil for natural toning due to its astringent properties. It helps the skin look and feel firm and supple. It also prevents wrinkles, helps remove toxins from your body, and gives your skin a lovely glow.

Frankincense Essential Oil is another oil It has been proven to kill abnormal cells and promote regeneration of healthy cells. Its also an astringent, keeping the skin tight, and is a powerful anti-aging oil! It also helps heal scars, bruises, scrapes, and stretch marks.

Lavender Essential Oil is also great for speeding up healing time on scrapes, cuts, rashes, razor burn, and scars. It also smells amazing!

Grapefruit Essential Oil is one of the major oils people suggest for cellulite due to its high amounts of the anti-inflammatory enzyme bromelain, which can help break down the fatty buildup of cellulite and help flush out those toxins.

Cedarwood Essential Oil much like several of the above oils is an astringent. As you can see, lots of the ingredients in this help tone and tighten skin to keep it youthful! It also helps with circulation and toxin removal.

Carrot Seed Essential Oil is like frankincense in that it is a powerful oil for anti aging and preventing wrinkles. It also is awesome for healing any scrapes, scratches, scars, and for reducing the appearance of stretch marks!

We love our legs. ❤️❤️
