The smells of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger are everywhere during the fall. You can find them in your favorite baked goods, candles shops, and lattes. So, why not bring one into your pampering routine.

Does pumpkin spice have pumpkin?

So, the traditional scent is actually a combination of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger. That’s the spice combination used in your favorite pie and it’s what’s usually in scented products.

What types of oils should I use?

If you want to keep this natural, opt for essential oils rather than fragrance oils. You will need to have cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and ginger.

You can use this pumpkin pie essential oil to get the best combination. Or, if you use oils a lot, you can invest in each separate scent.

Do I need a food processor to make this?

This pumpkin spice body butter is whipped to give it a lighter consistency. You don’t need to use a food processor. You can get the same results by using a hand mixer.

If you don’t have either, you can simply mix the ingredients to combine them. But, the final product won’t be as light and fluffy as if you whipped it first.

Can I add honey to my body butter?

You definitely can. Honey helps add moisture to your skin. And, it has antibacterial properties. If you suffer from skin irritations, it may be beneficial to use it in this body butter recipe.

What do I need to make pumpkin spice body butter?

• 2 4-ounce glass jars with lids

• ¼ cup shea butter

• ¼ cup cocoa butter

• 2 Vitamin E capsules

• ¼ cup coconut oil

• ¼ cup olive oil

• ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

• 20-25 drops of pumpkin pie essential oil

How long does whipped body butter last?

Vitamin E is a preservative and it should help this pumpkin spice body butter stay good for three months. To help extend the time, you can keep it in the refrigerator when you aren’t using it.

So, if you’ve been using the pumpkin body butter from Trader Joe’s, now you can make your own with this easy DIY. You won’t believe how similar it is to what you can buy.
