We know, we know, the calendar just switched to fall and we’re already talking about winter. But we just want to make sure you are prepared for all that these colder months bring! As much as we may love snowy days and chilly temperatures, our skin really isn’t a big fan. It becomes super dry, may even crack, and ain’t nobody got time for that. But fear not because we’ve got you covered (literally) with this super simple DIY recipe for dry winter skin! 

Winter Weather Body Butter 

• 4 oz. V6 Vegetable Oil Complex (you can get this straight from Young Living!)
• 4 oz. coconut oil (solid form)
• 10 drops each of Lemon, Lavender, and Gentle Baby
• Small glass jar 

Melt the coconut oil over a double boiler or slowly in the microwave and let cool, but not harden. Add in the essential oils and V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex or other liquid carrier oil of choice. Jojoba or sweet almond oils are great options to support dry skin! Beat with a hand mixer until it creates a whipped consistency, much like icing. Store in an airtight glass jar and apply to problem areas as needed.

That’s it, friends! A super simple, 5-ingredient body butter that will leave your winter skin healthy and hydrated all season long! And we know what you’re thinking – isn’t Gentle Baby for, well, babies? Sure it was it formulated for them and is amazing for littles. But if you have never used this oil for yourself, you’re totally missing out! It’s so soft and gentle and smells divine. No babies are required for owning a bottle of Gentle Baby, so be sure to throw it in your next Subscribe to Save order and enjoy the gentle benefits all for yourself! 

We hope this recipe helps you to enjoy the winter months that are fast approaching and love the skin you’re in, no matter the temperature. We’d love to know what you think when you whip up this wonderful winter recipe, so be sure to tag us over on Instagram @theoilerycollective when you do!
