Kokum Butter:
A highly prized and under-rated butter from the Garcinia tree. This
naturally white and incredibly smooth butter has enormously high
compositions of beneficial materials to help regenerate tired and worn
skin cells and further supports elasticity and general flexibility of
the skin wall. A great ingredient to add to healing lotions, creams, and
body butters. It can be directly applied to the skin in its solid
state, but it may require a mild amount of heating to improve
applicability. Highly recommended to those that are crafting cosmetics
with the intent of producing a skin healing end product. Click to learn more, see a photo, and/or order!

skin, and is very similar in color and texture as cocoa butter making

furniture waxes, lipsticks, and cosmetic recipes, which require a
formidable barrier agent. Click to learn more, see a photo, and/or order!
