cocoa butter skin benefits

My favorite cocoa butter skin benefit is the natural-ness of it. The color, the smell, the easy melting, the glossy feel, and the super moisturizing abilities that it leaves on your skin. I’ve used cocoa butter in a lot of my natural products that I sold at my little store. This includes as a superfatting for soap, lotions, lip balm, body butter and grated into bath salts.

The following image is of cocoa butter, but this version is white due to deodorizing. Some skin care creators do not want the scent of the cocoa butter in the finished product. I say that the less processing of anything is better, and perhaps that deodorizing method is also destroying some of the important benefits.

Please don’t fall for the marketing on a product such as this. Vaseline is made from crude oil, it is a petroleum product, just like gas and motor oil. The negatives from the paraffin wax or mineral oil will certainly outweigh any positives of the low amount of cocoa butter in this jar.
