Jasmine + Vanilla Bean Whipped Body Butter
Since I don’t currently have any process photos from creating the Body Butter, enjoy this photo of a Venus-drunk Sumo pawing at the model bottles! The Disney Princess effect is alive and well… Cats love Venus. Kids love Venus. *Everyone* loves Venus!
A proprietary combination of herbally infused, skin nourishing oils, shea butter, coconut oil, vanilla bean, and ylang ylang essential oil, whipped with 22kt rose gold.
“It’s like someone walked by with a cupcake…” one of the Helpers remarked.
Light, airy, and drool-worthy. The perfect Aerial complement to the Empress’ rich decadence, but no less exceptionally d e l i c i o u s .
Apply to release stress, settle into your own skin, and feel lighter, brighter, and more beautiful
Offered in a 2 oz glass jar or 6 oz bulk pot.
Important note: Body Butters are prone to melting in transit during hot weather, especially when shipped ground and/ or not collected immediately!
They are whipped (like cream) to create a soft, spreadable texture. When Body Butters melt in transit, the air within gets separated from the oil base, making the jar *appear* less full. Rest assured that we never send “half empty” Body Butters. You are getting the *same amount* of product when this happens. None leaked if the exterior of the jar and label are not oily. Your Butter can be restored by putting it into the refrigerator and re-whipping it, or used as-is, whatever you prefer! It retains its magical and herbal potency regardless of air content.
Refunds or replacements are not given for items that melt in transit. Only the Client understands what the weather is like in their area around the time they order, what their personal mail scenario is (put inside a climate controlled building or likely to be left in a hot mailbox?), and what type of shipping they choose. If your order qualifies for free shipping, please add your preference as a note if you have one. You can also refrain from obtaining items that may melt in hot conditions by saving those acquisitions for cooler weather.
Thank you for understanding!

I needed a more chill, less sunny option for the skin after nighttime showers that wouldn't amp me up. And I thought this would be good medicine for symmetry and grace in my neck and shoulders, major tension areas for me.
It really cooled me down and chilled me out at night.
Oddly though, after working with a short while, I got a rec for a very affordable device and my neck and shoulders have never felt better. Plus my face is way less puffy.
I feel like it opened up the doors for the healing and sprucing-up I really asked it for. Plus it brings a calm nighttime kick-back and is great for the skin. Very benefic magic.
Lovely scent! The effect is soothing and relaxing.
On a material level this is long-held the title of being one of my favorite Venus items; there have been new Venus focused elections since this one that have also been so wonderful in their own way, too, and all are worth trying. I use this body butter to smooth out dry skin patches because the blend of oils is very nourishing and glow-inducing. A little goes a long way.
Has an intoxicating humid white floral scent (smells expensive and fancy! very feminine) plus a very mouth-watering sweet and natural vanilla at its heart. I think sometimes people act just a little more dazed than usual if I am out and about with this on so I try to choose settings where precision is not the main focus. Has also helped me get into the mindset of getting ready and dressed up for a night out; this side of Venus seems to like things both clean and a little more glamorous.
I am a Libra rising and have exalted Venus in Pisces in the 6th house, and I absolutely see how it benefits me, but I always imagined what would it be like to have a Venus in Libra on the asc.
This body butter is my "mask" to embody this placement! I have a baby face and very good skin, BUT when I put the body butter in very small quantities on my face all heads are turned in my direction. I get attention, people talk to me spontaneously, which is also a part of my nature up until now, but the butter definitely makes it more "flirty".
It is not good if you want to NOT BE SEEN when out and about!
The smell is absolutely gorgeous, the results - even more so!
This smells so lovely. The scent is subtle. It’s definitely there but not overwhelming. It’s a favorite when I’m taking an ultimate shower and having a self-care day. You will love it!
I think I’ve reacted to this more strongly than I have any other materia. I’ve been dealing with a stressful work situation, so I was very happy when this was restocked, as I’ve responded well to other Venus materia. But I realized, after maybe a week or two of daily use, that I was maybe a bit *too* relaxed about my situation to the point of outright avoiding it in favor of mindless distractions. I think this one may work best for me when paired with other material, perhaps Saturn. I will continue experimenting! The scent is very jasmine-forward, and the vanilla amps up the rich, indolic qualities imo. I love the scent of real jasmine, so it’s a treat to use.
I struggle a bit with the smell of this because the jasmine is prominent and I can find that overwhelming sometimes - but under it is a lovely light vanilla smell that is nice. Regardless of the jasmine, I'd say the effects of this are as expected - it makes me feel lighter emotionally but without feeling too indulgent/lazy, which is nice!
At last I feel internal permission to review another item than DA! Makes sense that it would be the series that helped me build a social network/ life! It just makes relating feel like it actually can be easy. Also the butter in particular makes my skin glow and my face look lovely, can't imagine life without it!
After I was put on a mental health medication, I gained a substantial amount of weight that really affected my body image. As a Taurus Rising with Venus placed in the 6th in Libra, I decided to run a series of baths each week on a Venus night with the bath salts and body butter from this series. Even though, in my ignorance and immaturity, I did it initially with the intent of being bestowed beauty (pronounced as: "please let me be skinny again" *eyeroll*), I didn't lose weight. I did, however, gain something far, far more valuable in this process. As the time passed by (it took almost 2 years), I started to CHERISH MY BODY. Not from a shallow place, but from a place of recognition that it is a vessel that carries my soul. I realised that my body has been with me and loved me, unconditionally, even when I didn't treat it well or love it back. It's like my eyes have been opened after a lifetime of blindness. So, my body might not have changed physically, but my relationship with it has been altered forever, in a way I could have never dreamt of before. Oh, and as a side note: as one of the effects of this transformation, I also experienced the best sex of my life (yes, at my "fattest", yes f*ck the patriarchy).
TMI? I find I like to use this in my "areas" as I am experiencing some of the super fun dryness and irritation of perimenopause. Feels indulgent, I'm a fan.
Obvi oily when applied and melting but also doesn't seem to break me out? Jar is lasting a long time
Really have come to rely upon VAD as an everyday support materia. It is relaxing and supportive on its own but layers well with other series (frequently pair with Exalted Luna for leaning into the sensual and Saturn in Aquarius for structure/relational matters) The combo of vanilla and jasmine is otherworldly and stays with you for quite a while after application. Headed into the colder months I use this quite frequently now to restore moisture to my skin after a shower and it really helps combat the dry winter air. Thank you Venus.
The smell of this body butter is just lovely— a light & sweet gourmand scent that lingers a bit longer than other S&S body butters I’ve used. I love the smell so much that I *definitely* went overboard with it when I first received it…which honestly made me forgetful and easily distracted. I felt ditzy, and after a handful of days of heavy application I realized I was acting like a bit of an airhead.
I didn’t feel that way in the moment, though! In the moment I felt buzzy and bright. But overuse/wearing alone without other materia made me flighty, flaky, and scatterbrained.
Consequently, I learned to utilize this materia in the optimal way for me personally: I use a small amount of this body butter as a second energetic layer, and apply a different S&S product beforehand (I really like combining it with Azure Dragon or Luminous Crown, and recently started experimenting with Saturn in Aquarius). When used like this, VAD makes me chatty and social— but in an engaged, compelling way instead of being all over the place.
It turns out my natal chart is not very compatible with this particular election, and I also think some of the more negative aspects I experienced were caused by a contraindication of sorts between VAD & the (several) psych meds I take daily.
Anyway, I am just happy and relieved that I figured out a way to interact positively with this body butter!
All of the body butters I’ve tried are wonderful, but for me, this one takes the cake (and kind of smells like one, too!). The jasmine and vanilla is my favorite scent, and while energetically it’s less insulating than Butter Ocean or Exalted Luna, I like the fact that the energy is carefree in a more breezy kind of way. (My own Venus is in Aquarius, and I have a lot of Saturn-ruled planets.)
I’m reviewing this body butter on behalf of my husband, who’s begun his twenty-year Venus Mahadasha and is going nuts with this series on the advice of a super-reputable astrologer. When I tell you how he loooooves this stuff. I had to let him know he probably shouldn’t lay it on quite so thick since, you know, it’s not free. (This isn’t Aveeno, baby!) But my man is taking extra nice care of himself now—dressing better, getting good haircuts, and treating himself to the nice things he deserves, which is a new one for him. I’ll use a teeny bit sometimes and it’s sooo luscious, scent-wise. This whole series is a joy.
This is a *delicious* body butter. I'd slather myself in it every single day if I weren't worried about burning through it. It is so, so, so lovely! I feel happy, easy-going, and at peace when I wear this. I try to save it for Fridays but I do indulge on non-Venus days too. It helps to soften me if I have to be super social.
Smells amazing and really amplifies the social, chatty side of Venus. It's a nice balance of relaxing and stimulating (in an uplifting way). I like to wear it when I go out, while doing interviews, or during client meetings.
This smells so good I would buy it even if it weren't magical. It was the first product I finished, and I absolutely blew through it. It's much flirtier and less intense than the Exalted Venus, lighter and more fun. I will definitely be getting another (and larger this time!) soon.
I love both the smell and texture of this body butter, I think I would buy this even if it didn't have magical properties. But I especially love the way it seems to ease all my social interactions. Conversation flows and potentially awkward interactions turn out to be surprisingly pleasant instead.
I enjoy the scent of the body butter - it really is like a cupcake! The body butter feels smooth-going and is a delight to the skin when applied.
However, do be careful, as I've learnt the hard way, about applying it blindly (hence the 4 stars) - depending on how one's nativity operates, it can lead to somewhat challenging effects in becoming more aware of obstacles and hang-ups pertaining to Venusian matters of self-worth/care and relationships. Slow and steady (with prayful intent) is best.
This body butter smells so amazing. The smell alone uplifts my spirits. The texture is smooth and it absorbs very nicely. A perfect addition to self-care routine — especially for a Friday — for that spa-like feel.
I didn't instantly connect with this body butter, and I'm not sure why. Jasmine is my favorite scent, so I loved the smell, but for some reason I didn't connect with it energetically like I did with the beauty oil and the salve. Nevertheless, I kept at it and eventually connected to it, primarily using it when I planned to be out with friends. It makes me feel light, carefree, and airy (just like the description), which might be why it took me a minute to dig into it. As far as my chart goes, I have no planets in any air signs. The election for this series has 5 planets in 2 air signs, so it took some work for me to feel its effects.
The scent of this really is as good as everyone says it is! I bought it for my mom, so I was only able to test a tiny dab. I've had excellent experiences with other items from this series, so I would expect similar results from this, but the only thing that I can 100% certify here is the absolutely delicious scent.
I adore this BB. Recently used it to great success at a major work event where I needed to be fully *on* and as charming as possible while manning a crowded bar by myself. There was a lot of pressure on this event because I was brand new to the space and all of the higher-ups would be there. I felt a lot of anxiety the night before that I would be unprepared or make some fatal mistake and blow my chances at this job (which I really, really want btw!) so I took the time to absolutely SLATHER myself in this baby* before heading off.
It worked a treat. I spent the evening gliding around with grace and ease, swimming in praises and tips while everything flowed with minimal effort.
The best way I could describe this body butter is that it makes you feel yourself. In the "feelin myself" sense but also in a more literal sense, like you are more sympathetically attuned to your surroundings, your body, and your psyche.
I highly recommend it for any sort of social gathering, particularly where one needs to bring any sort of "charm offensive." It is also, quite simply, delicious.
*along my fave Venus BPALs, MiG door-key oil, and a touch of Butter Ocean.
This better is such a great aid for me when you should be social but do not feel like it. It gives me energy and desire to go out and chat with people when I do not feel like it but I know it is right thing to do. It is not as badly as EVII and rather want you to go out and explore world outside yourself. I am bringing it with me for all my conferences when I travel.
I put this on whenever I need to feel soft and loved. It’s an olfactory love song. Swoon.
My dear friend gave me a small sample of this body butter to try knowing my Venus is in Libra, and I barely had to smell it before I put a 2oz in my cart to purchase for my own. The most amazing light fluffy scent, neither too floral nor too gourmand, neither too rich nor too faint, and the most beautiful texture, truly like whipped butter melting on your fingers. Using it is a complete joy and I stand a little taller and love myself a little more every time I open the jar to anoint myself. Truly feels comforting, protective, beautifying, and supportive. In true Venus fashion I end up using the most of this body butter at a time than the others I’ve tried, and I will be picking up the larger size soon!
Besides the Venusian qualities I was expecting - promoting self-love and relaxation etc - I had no idea this would be so good for pain relief. I applied some to a pretty terrible sunburn when I didn’t have any aloe vera on hand and within half an hour, the aches and feelings of dehydration had passed. By the next morning, the burn had faded to a nice tan - totally unheard of for me! Magic indeed!
I use this enchanted body butter in my evening beauty ritual before bed. I also use it anytime I want to add a soft glowing feeling of gorgeousness. I love the perfume- softly floral and warm, and the texture and the sumptuousness of the butter, it’s like a whipped body oil. I prefer to use it on my face, neck and décolleté, and it is one of the favorite moments of my day💗
Perfect blend of scents and very nice texture. Love this body butter. Just makes you feel good and spoiled rotten.
Sweet delicate fragrance- I have a lot to say about the aerial Queen- which is most helpful for easing relational tensions- so that I can get on with doing … all the other stuff that I must do! Adds a charming Disney princess vibe to the rough and tough labors of the day … the birds are chirping and flying in and out of my studio barn as I work on creating beautiful objects. Tra-la-laaa
