Discover the benefits of natural butters

Have you ever wondered what the health benefits are from using natural butters in your skincare routine?

Let’s look at the different types of butters I work with and how they help our skin.

Mango Butter-has a melty, creamy feel and is prepared by cold-pressing the pulp found inside the seeds of the tropical Mango Tree. While mango butter is softer than shea and cocoa butter, it has a higher concentration of fatty acids, making it a more powerful moisturiser. It has little to no odor, and because it is high in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, it aids in the relief of dry skin diseases and the slowing of skin cell deterioration.

Shea Butter-is a fat derived from the seeds of the African Shea Tree, and it has been popular since antiquity. It's high in vitamins A, E, and F, as well as collagen, which helps you fight wrinkles and aging. It is also ideal for oily or acne-prone skin because it does not clog pores or cause acne. Shea butter has a nutty, woody aroma that distinguishes it from other butters. This is a "intense" moisturizer that can even be used on your scalp if you have dry skin. Another fantastic feature of shea butter is that it contains a natural SPF, making it an excellent addition to any homemade sunscreen recipe. It also produces a natural barrier on the skin, similar to other butters, to retain moisture in, making it an excellent choice to apply before or after sun exposure to keep your skin hydrated.

Kokum Butter-one of the most emollient butters, is filled with healing and deeply moisturizing characteristics that stimulate skin regeneration. It's an oil made from the seeds of the Kokum tree, a fruit-bearing species. Kokum Butter is a light weight emollient that profoundly nourishes and softens dry skin, scalp, hair, and chapped lips. It melts into the skin and absorbs quickly without leaving any oily residue after application. It's a healthy technique to deal with a number of ailments.

Cocoa Butter-is made from cocoa beans, which are the seeds of a Cacao Tree pod. Cocoa butter, which is high in vitamin E and natural antioxidants, is believed to help prevent stretch marks and other symptoms of aging. The butter smells wonderful and easily penetrates the skin, hydrating and soothing it. It has a wonderful mild chocolate aroma and feels delicious on your skin, and the texture is creamy and yellowish in color.
