Cocoa Seed Butter
Theobroma Cacao
By far my favorite ingredient in skin care products, a solid vegetable butter extracted from the cocoa bean.
Rich in fatty acids which may help form a protective layer on the skin preventing moisture lose from the skin and thus preventing it from drying out. It's been used for eczema and skin irritation, and some even swear by it for prevention of stretch marks.
Raw, organic cocoa butter still has the aroma of chocolate, (it's used in chocolate production after all) which is why is was chosen for our vanilla body cream - great for chocolate lovers without the calories.
Cocoa butter also forms the basis for our handmade boutique soap range.
