This Whipped Lavender Body Butter is full of skin-loving floral ingredients. The main ingredient is lavender butter. It has a very light scent that’s accentuated by Lavender Fine Essential Oil.
The butter has a fluffy texture that’s achieved by whipping with a hand or stand mixer. Orchid extract gives the body butter a smoother consistency. Arrowroot powder is added to cut down the greasy feel on the skin. Because this product does not contain any water, a preservative is not necessary. If you prefer to use one, Optiphen can be added.
