Escentia Cocoa Butter - Refined is a refined plant butter used in skincare, lip care, soaps, balms, and lotion formulations where rich emolliency and a protective skin feel are wanted. It is a solid butter at cooler room temperatures and melts with warmth, which makes it especially useful in body butters and oil-based blends. This is a cosmetic ingredient rather than a ready-to-use finished moisturiser. The refined format also makes it easier to work with when blending.
♡ Why we love it: Refined cocoa butter is one of those reliable formulation staples that brings body, richness, and a beautifully nourishing feel to all kinds of DIY creations. It is especially handy for makers who want the classic feel of cocoa butter in a format that blends more easily into creams, balms, soaps, and lip care.
