Escentia Avocado Butter - Refined is a plant-based butter made from the flesh of the avocado fruit and refined for a smoother, more neutral profile. It has an ivory colour, mild nutty aroma and soft butter-like consistency while remaining solid at room temperature. This makes it useful in creams, balms, soaps, conditioners, massage blends and body care products where richness and skin-softening properties are wanted. It is a cosmetic butter for external use and formulation work, rather than a food ingredient.

♡ Why we love it: Avocado butter is versatile, rich and easy to work with. It brings the softness of avocado in a more stable, butter-like format for body care, hair care and everyday formulation projects.

This product is certified: Vegan.
