Cocoa Butter

We use the nourishing gifts of USDA certified organic Fair Trade Cocoa Butter in many of our rich moisturizers:  The Lip Butter, The Butter Balm, and our Silk Whipped Body Butter.

One of the reasons that cocoa butter is so valuable is its high concentration of antioxidant compounds, including oleic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid.  These fatty acids help to neutralize free radicals throughout the body, particularly in the skin.  By reducing the occurrence of oxidative stress, cocoa butter can help reduce the signs of aging, including wrinkles and age marks.

Cocoa butter also protects the skin from damaging environmental factors. The antioxidants protect the skin from environmental elements that can cause irritation or damage to the skin. The rich blend of fatty acids and antioxidants in cocoa butter make it an ideal choice for people who want to reduce inflammation of the skin. Whether you apply cocoa butter to psoriasis, eczema, rashes, or other types of inflammation on the body, you can find quick, soothing relief, combined with a delicious aroma.
