BUTTERS

All cosmetic butters should be handled, and stored, with the same, preventative, care that you would use, for your carrier oils, or any other precious material as they are just as fragile.

All butters are gently refined unless otherwise indicated in the name / description. Please note that our butters are only gently refined and without solvents so they will still have some of their natural odor, in some cases this is still fairly strong and they will still have some natural color. If you are looking for color free and odor free butters then our butters will probably not meet your needs. As always, please purchase samples before making larger purchases. 

With our unrefined butters and oils it is important to expect there to be variations in color and odor from lot to lot.  With pure and natural there is no implementation of controls to reduce, or enhance, natural odor or color.  If these parameters are important to your product line then you will need to use the refined versions or sample the product before each purchase to make sure that it meets with your needs.  We love the natural variations because it indicates that the plant is doing what it should... reacting to it's environment and changing it's makeup as needed to ensure health and vitality.

As we know that excessive, and repeated exposure to, heat is damaging to the quality, of the butters, we do not heat them to pour them into jars for shipping. All of our cosmetic butters are scraped, shaved or scooped, as needed to package them into jars, without applying heat. Because of this practice butters will always be packed into a container that is, roughly twice the size, of the melted butter. This means that if you order 16oz (1lb) of shea butter it will be packed into a 32oz (2lb) container as it requires twice the space. We would rather spend a little more for the package, in this case, than jeopardize the integrity, and quality, of our cosmetic butters. If you receive your butter in a warmed condition, due to transit, the container will appear to be less than full. This is normal, and expected, as they are packaged by weight, not by volume.

We think you'll find that our cosmetic butters, are of the highest quality and will appreciate the steps that we have taken to make sure that we deliver the value that you expect from us. Our customers are always telling us how much they love our Shea Butter, for instance, because it's smooth and creamy, when solid, never gritty. Nothing beats our Cocoa Butter Natural because it is in droplets for ease of use.

We offer Cocoa Butter in many forms like Cocoa Butter Natural Organic, Cocoa Butter Natural , Cocoa Butter Deodorized . You will be able to find a Cocoa Butter that you need.
