My Homemade Whipped Shea Butter Recipe

This recipe if dedicated to my natural hair, natural beauty, natural you lovers!

My homemade whipped shea butter has worked wonders for my skin and natural hair. As I have naturally dry skin and dry 4A/B hair anything that helps me to retain moisture is a beloved staple in my beauty regimen. I decided to make whipped shea butter because I was tired of spending money on tons of natural hair products that needed to be layered with a ton of other products. Don't get me wrong, I'm come across my fair share of products that work, but I figured that making my own products would be fun and educating. To begin I used the products listed:

- Raw Shea Butter (2 cups)

• Benefits: Moisturizing and conditioning, packed with vitamin E, anti-inflammatory properties

- Avocado Oil (1/4 cup)

• Benefits: rich in oleic acid and monounsaturated fats with helps to penetrants hair shaft and add moisture protects against sun damage, and protects skin from ultraviolet radiation.

• Benefits: High in antioxidants, improve circulation, stimulate nutrient absorption, support the hair growth process,

When you have all of your ingredients, add them to a large mixing bowl! Next, get your blender and blend the shea butter for about 2-5 minutes . The products will begin to mix together and form a fluffy whipped like goodness that your hair and skin will thank you for! Transfer the products to a jar or your choice and kiss dry skin and hair GOODBYE!
