– Always use tight jars to save your body butters – Store the body butters in a cool and dry place to prevent the body butter from melting – The quality of a diy body butter is as good as the ingredients used. So, try to use organic ingredients wherever possible

– Homemade body butters are made without any preservatives. Hence, one must keep in mind that their shelf life will be shorter. It is recommended to make these butters in small batches – While removing the body butters from the jar, ensure that your hands are clean and dry – The base oils and butters are for moisturising the skin while the essential oils are to appeal to the senses. Choose the essential oils that work for you. Some recommended essential oils for diy body butters are peppermint, lavender, eucalyptus, orange and rosemary – You can alter the proportions of the base oils and butters depending on how rich you want your body butter to be

– Slow absorbing oils like avocado oil and castor oil can be used to make the body butter less greasy – Some butters like mango butter and shea butter tend to get grainy when they begin to cool after being heated. If this happens, you can place the melted mixture in an ice bath (keep the butter bowl inside a larger bowl of ice) to help it cool instantly before the whipping process – The shelf life of the diy body butters is the same as that of the oils used to make it
