DIY Body Butter
In an effort to be more sustainable and to know everything that goes into my products, I’ve been trying to make more of my products myself. This is also a great way to save money on products you purchase more frequently. When you make your own products, you’re able ensure the quality of the ingredients matches your standards and that everything will be kind to your skin. Here’s how I make my own body butter!
