McDairy Homemade Ghee is a dairy fat made from pasteurised cream and salt, used in both cooking and simple DIY body care. In the kitchen, it is commonly used for frying, roasting, sautéing, and adding rich buttery flavour to everyday meals. In cosmetic use, ghee is traditionally used in simple skin and hair routines where a richer, more emollient texture is preferred. This is a homemade-style ghee product rather than a standard table butter or a formulated cosmetic product.

♡ Why we love it: It is one of those old-school staples that can feel equally at home in the kitchen and in simple, ingredient-led self-care. The rich, buttery character makes it useful for cooking, while its dense, nourishing feel also lends itself well to uncomplicated topical use.
