Total Time:25 minutes Ingredients 12 tablespoons of organic unrefined mango butter 2 tablespoons of organic refined shea butter 6 tablespoons of organic safflower oil 1 teaspoon of arrowroot powder (optional and to make it less greasy) 15 drops of roman chamomile essential oil 3 drops of bergamot Bergaptene free essential oil 10 drops of patchouli essential oil 3 Glass Salve Containers of 100 ml Instructions Put the shea and mango butter in a glass or metal bowl inside a pan filled with water on low heat so they start melting slowly. Once melted add the safflower oil and mix well. Put the bowl in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the temperature of your freezer. You want the mixture to not be completely frozen but thick enough so it is not liquid. If it's a soft paste then its ready to whip! Then take it out of the freezer and start whipping with an electric whip at low speed. Add the arrowroot powder and essential oils if desired and begin whipping your mixture on low speed until it becomes fluffy. Your whipped butter will have a fluffy consistency!
