DIRECTIONS
1. **Cleanse and Dry Skin:**
Start with clean, dry skin. Consider using a mild soap or body wash in the shower and pat your skin dry with a towel.
2. **Take a Small Amount:**
Scoop a small amount of the handmade whipped body butter using a clean spatula or your fingertips. A little goes a long way, so start with a small quantity.
3. **Warm in Your Hands:**
Rub the whipped body butter between your palms to warm it slightly. This helps the butter melt upon contact with your skin, making it easier to spread.
4. **Apply to Damp Skin:**
For best results, apply the whipped body butter to slightly damp skin. This can be right after a shower or after lightly misting your skin with water.
5. **Massage Into Skin:**
Gently massage the body butter into your skin using upward circular motions. Pay attention to areas prone to dryness, such as elbows, knees, and heels.
6. **Allow Absorption:**
Give your skin a few minutes to absorb the body butter. It will leave your skin feeling soft and hydrated.
7. **Adjust Quantity as Needed:**
Depending on your skin's needs, you may need more or less body butter. Experiment to find the right amount for your skin type.
8. **Avoid Contact with Eyes:**
Be cautious around the eye area and avoid direct contact. If the body butter gets into your eyes, rinse thoroughly with water.
9. **Reapply as Necessary:**
You can reapply the whipped body butter throughout the day, especially if you have particularly dry skin. However, a morning and evening application is generally sufficient.
10. **Use Regularly:**
Incorporate the whipped body butter into your daily skincare routine for long-lasting hydration. Consistency is key for maintaining soft and nourished skin.
11. **Store in a Cool Place:**
Keep the container of whipped body butter in a cool, dry place to prevent it from melting. If it melts, you can refrigerate it briefly to restore its whipped texture.
12. **Patch Test:**
If you're using the whipped body butter for the first time, perform a patch test on a small area of your skin to ensure you don't have any adverse reactions.
13. **Enjoy the Fragrance:**
Appreciate the natural fragrance from the essential oils used in the body butter. If you prefer a stronger or milder scent, adjust the amount of essential oils in your next batch.
14. **Share the Love:**
Consider making extra batches to share with friends or family. Handmade whipped body butter can make a thoughtful and personalized gift.
15. **Monitor Skin Response:**
Pay attention to how your skin responds over time. If you experience any irritation or discomfort, discontinue use and consult with a dermatologist if needed.
