Whipped body butter in an open jar beside its ingredients

Body butter workshop, Halifax

Three ingredients and a jar that is yours.

Butters and oils, warmed, blended and whipped until they hold. You choose what goes in and how it smells, and you leave with the jar and the recipe that made it.

Most of what is sold as body butter is mostly water. This is not, which is why it feels different and why a small jar lasts.

Questions

What people ask about body butter

Every answer is in the page whether the row is open or not, so a search engine can read it.

What actually goes in it?

Butters and carrier oils, whipped. Shea and cocoa butter are the usual base and the oil changes how light it feels. Everything on the table is named and you write down what went into yours.

How long does it keep?

Months rather than weeks, because there is no water in it and water is what needs a preservative. Keep it out of a hot bathroom: it is butter, and it will soften.

Can I choose the scent?

Yes, or leave it out. Essential oils are on the table and the amount is yours to decide, which is the part people are most surprised to have control over.

What if I have sensitive skin or an allergy?

Tell us before you book. Nut-derived butters are common in this and substitutions are straightforward when they are known about in advance rather than on the day.

Do I take it home the same day?

Yes. It is whipped and jarred in the session and it is ready to use immediately.

Is this a good one for a group?

It is one of the best. Everybody finishes at the same time, nobody needs a steady hand, and choosing the scent gives a room of people who half know each other something to talk about.
