@angie92 if you’re into matcha scents, you HAVE to try this matcha body butter! It smells incredible, isn’t greasy, and hydrates like nothing else!

  • 4 oz refined shea butter
  • 1.25 oz liquid coconut oil
  • 1/4 tsp carnauba wax
  • 1/2 tsp matcha green tea powder
  • 1/2 tsp lavender essential oil
  • a few drops of vitamin E oil

Directions:

  1. In a double boiler or in the microwave, heat together the carnauba wax and shea butter until melted.
  2. If you happen to live in a particularly warmer area, you may need to double the amount of carnauba wax to keep your matcha body butter from melting.
  3. Let the wax and butter cool for a minute or two, then add in the coconut oil, matcha green tea powder, lavender oil, and vitamin e oil.
  4. Stir all ingredients until they’re well combined and place in the refrigerator until it solidifies.
  5. Once solidified, remove from refrigerator and let it reach room temperature.
  6. Once it has reached room temperature, take a hand mixer and whip until smooth and creamy.
  7. Scoop your matcha body butter into a clean, airtight jar or container and it’s ready to use!
  8. Slather it on all over your body (works great for the face as well) after a day at the beach, after a shower, or before bed – any time is a good time to use this amazing body butter!
