This is a rich, buttery cream that is a wonderful allover body cream. It contains four well-known sking-conditioning products: cocoa butter, coconut oil, sesame oil, and avocado oil. It is especially nice after a day in the sun or after a warm shower to lock in moisture. This is a heavy cream, and is not recommended for use on you face.

Combine all the ingredients in an ovenproof glass container. Place the container with the mixture in a pan with a 1 to 2 inch water bath. Melt the oils and wax gently. Pour the melted mixture into a clean jar and allow to cool. Stir the cooled mixture.

Spread the butter on your body and massage into the skin.
