HOW TO MAKE THIS VELVETY BODY BUTTER
INGREDIENTS

- 2 oz. of Baraka Kombo Butter
- 1 fl. oz. of Jojoba oil
DIRECTIONS
- Melt the shea and cocoa butters in a double boiler.

- Once melted, take off of the heat and add the Kombo Butter and jojoba.
- Once all the butters are incorporated, place in the refrigerator until cool and the top begins to harden slightly.
- Blend with a mixer on high speed for 3 - 4 minutes, resting for two minutes. Continue this for approximately 20 - 30 minutes until you obtain a gorgeous whipped butter!
