Body Butters are thick and rich products. Our butters contain only natural solid and liquid plant oils. Only a tiny amount is necessary to soften skin and combat driness. Solid in the container, the heat of your body causes them to liquefy and glide onto your skin releasing their healing properties. More emollient than a lotion or a cream, butters are best used on skin that is very dry, flaky, itchy or thickened.
Lotion differs from butters due in part to the addition of water. When combining water and oil, we need a way to keep the two from separating. An emulsifier is used to hold them together in a blend known as an emulsion; in this case - lotion.
