Ingredients
Method
- Put the shea and mango butter in a glass or metal bowl inside a pan filled with water on low heat so they starts melting slowly.
- Once melted add the safflower oil and mix well.
- Put the bowl 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 its a soft paste then its ready to whip!
- Then take it out of the freezer and start whipping with an electric whip on low speed.
- Add the arrowroot powder if desired. This is optional but will help have a light feeling and texture on the skin.
- Make sure you wear an apron and that the bowl is deep enough so the butter does not start flying around everywhere in the kitchen!
- Begin whipping your mixture on low speed until it becomes fluffy.
- Once the mixture is fluffy, increase the speed to medium until it becomes whipped to the desired stage.
- Add essential oils if desired at the end and whip for 1 min or less.
- Your butter will have a very fluffy and light consistency, like a nice whipped cream!
