If your skin is extremely dry, moisturizing products like body butter and lotion bars work wonders. These body butter sticks are made with a combination of nourishing avocado butter, sweet almond oil, and oat oil. Beeswax helps them harden and protects the skin. They are lightly scented with warm and inviting Cashmere Fragrance Oil. With notes of white magnolia and violet, it’s perfect for leave-on products.
Once mixed together, the recipe is poured into twist tubes. They’re easy to use – first ensure the clear cap at the top is in place, then secure it by twisting on the top firmly. Flip the tube over and pour the mixture into the hole in the bottom. Allow to cool and secure the bottom with the base.
Allow the body butter to cool and harden for several hours or up to overnight before removing the clear cap. If it’s removed too early, it could stick. When you’re ready to use, twist up the body butter and apply to dry skin.
To give the twist tubes a polished look that’s ready to give, download the Body Butter Stick Labels. It’s a free PDF that can be printed on label paper. The document includes both the black and gray versions, so you can choose the color combination you prefer.

ONE: In a heat-safe container, add 1 ounce of oat oil, 3.5 ounces of avocado butter, 3 ounces of white beeswax, and 2.5 ounces of sweet almond oil.
