LEMON BUTTER

Lemon Butter is derived from lemon peel oil and lemon peel wax, specifically from Canada, and is obtained by the cold pressing of lemon peels followed by a full refining process. The natural oil contains Limonene, which is a very effective free radical scavenger. Lemon peel oil has a cleansing and toning effect on skin that may improve oily skin and acne problems. Lemon butter also contains lemon peel wax, which possesses a high level of Bioflavonoids (polyphenols). Bioflavonoids have anti-cellulite, anti-inflammatory, and many other protective benefits for the skin. In cosmetic preparations, lemon butter smells fresh and clean, and the lemon peel wax can act as a co-emulsifier, which can increase emulsion stability. Lemon butter spreads smoothly on the skin, making it ideal as a massage butter or carrier for treatment products. Additionally, it adds crucial moisturizing attributes to creams, lotions, and bar soaps.

Stability - Shelf Life should be approximately 24 months if stored away from light and heat (15C/59F - 25C/77F)

ORGANIC MANGO BUTTER

The mango tree (Mangifera indica) grows in India's sub-tropics as well as other parts of the globe. From its seeds, a firm “butter” is rendered. This "butter" provides important beneficial qualities in soaps, cosmetics, toiletries, and pharmaceuticals. Mango butter exhibits excellent moisturizing properties and good lubricity. It melts easily at skin temperature, making it ideal for sticks, balms, and suppositories. It also counters the drying effects of bar soaps and cleansers.

Shea Butter has been used in Africa for centuries for its moisturizing and healing properties, where it has been used to protect and condition skin which has been damaged by the sun and wind. After being extracted from the shea nut, the crude butter is fully refined. The appearance is white in color and it possesses a mild to nonexistent odor.
