Everything you are describing is 100% normal. The whipped versions always solidify when fully settled. The tiny pieces will melt on skin contact, and because this formula is butter and oil based, it will be more oily than the typical lotions – those contain about 80% water, the other ingredients are very diluted and won’t feed your skin like this homemade body butter.

This was my first time making body mousse. I thought I had over-whipped it because it was more liquid than solid when I put it in the containers provided. I had so much I had to get two more containers. Now that it’s been in jars for awhile, it’s solidified some. It feels soft when I put it on my hands, but even a little bit leaves a shiny almost greasy residue (I also added the recommended EOs) and I’ll feel occasionally some tiny pieces of what I’m assuming is the mango butter. Is this normal with body mousses? All in all, easy directions to follow and easy to make.
