INCI: Simmondsia chinensis butter

Essentially Natural Jojoba Butter Refined is a soft, creamy butter made from isomerized, partially hydrogenated jojoba wax esters derived from jojoba oil. It offers rich emollience with a lightweight skin feel and a neutral aroma, making it easy to use across skincare and haircare. Because it melts close to skin temperature, it spreads smoothly and helps support a soft, conditioned finish without a heavy after-feel.

This product is certified: Vegan and BWC.

Q: What does refined mean for jojoba butter?
A: Refining typically reduces colour and aroma, making it a more neutral ingredient that blends well into a wide range of formulations.

Q: Will it feel greasy on the skin?
A: It is often chosen for a softer, lighter after-feel compared to heavier butters, especially when used in balanced formulas.

Q: Can I use it in an emulsified cream or lotion?
A: Yes, it can be used in the oil phase of emulsions alongside an appropriate emulsifier system.

Q: Does it stay solid in warm weather?
A: It begins to soften and melt around 34-38°C, so it may soften in hot conditions and firm up again when cooled.

Q: Is it suitable for vegan formulations?
A: Yes, it is derived from plant-based jojoba oil wax esters.
