Feel free to use both together or for different purposes, such as cocoa butter on your lips but coconut oil on your hair. How to Use Who should use it: In general, anyone in need of a body moisturizer—however, if you easily get body acne, you might want to skip this one. Our cocoa butter is unrefined, and has been lightly deodourised (a process where the cocoa butter is steamed). The remaining scent is quite understated, but still detectable. However this won't influence the scent of the finished product. Ingredients One of the most popular ways to use cocoa butter is on chapped lips, especially in homemade lip balms. It can be used with grapefruit, vanilla, orange or peppermint oil to make flavorful lip palms that are also hydrating for delicate skin. Cocoa butter remains solid at room temperature but melts at higher temps, such as those within the human body. This is what allows it to be rubbed into the skin and what makes it a good fat to cook or bake with.

Cocoa butter and coconut butter are not the same products. Cocoa butter is very solid and brittle and can take longer to melt. Whereas coconut oil melts a lot easier at temperatures of around 25C.

One of the most popular ways to cook with cocoa butter is to make homemade chocolate by combining it with coconut palm sugar, maple syrup or raw honey, and cocoa powder. While saturated fats used to be frowned upon and blamed for contributing to heart problems, today many researchers believe that plant-derived saturated fats can actually be beneficial for reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases. You can use cocoa butter in your tub to shave and hydrate skin at the same time. It melts easily in warm water and won’t clog your drain. Natural hydrating products also tend to cause much less irritation to the skin than products made with additives, fragrances, colors and dyes.

Whether you realize it or not, you’ve probably eaten cocoa butter many times in your life — plus smeared it onto your skin. It’s the fat source used to make chocolate, giving it its alluring, melt-in-your-mouth, silky feel. It can be found in basically all types of chocolate, including dark, milk or white. It is also rich in phytochemicals. These are natural plant compounds that improve blood flow to the skin and slow skin aging by protecting the skin against damage from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Our cacao butter is unrefined and organic so it has a strong, natural chocolate scent and it hasn’t been subjected to any harsh chemical processes or been deodorised. Around the internet, one of the most popular uses for cocoa butter is preventing or treating stretch marks, especially during pregnancy. Does this method actually work? Overall, study results have been mixed regarding its efficacy for getting rid of stretch marks.It reduces stretch marks and scars: Many women claim that the regular use of cocoa butter kept stretch marks at bay both during and after pregnancy. Now, those claims are anecdotal, but you will find a ton of anti-stretch mark cocoa butter products to choose from. In fact, Palmers, a skincare line devoted to cocoa butter, offersa product just for stretch marks. Similarly, the ingredient is reputed to helpheal scars. Raw cocoa butter, sometimes labeled as “pure cocoa butter,” isn’t heated to very high temperatures during manufacturing processes, which means it usually retains more of the healthy fats and other compounds found naturally in cocoa beans. Similarly, raw cacao powder is made by cold-pressing unroasted cocoa beans. To be considered raw, temperatures usually don’t exceed about 115 Fahrenheit.

Cocoa butter is a hard, brittle oil that is solid at room temperature. Our cocoa butter is food grade and is fantastic for chocolate making and in other recipes. We prefer unrefined cocoa butter because it hasn't been through the same chemical processes as refined cocoa butter. Nothing beats the natural chocolate scent of cocoa butter! Where is your cacao butter from? Organic raw cocoa butter can be used on the face, however it has a high comedogenic rating of 4. This means it will clog pores and is not recommended for acne prone skin. Does cocoa butter darken skin? Coconut is popularly used in hair care as well as it leaves hair shinier and hydrated. Whereas, organic cacao butter is perfect for skin care products like creams and lotions. Is refined or unrefined cocoa butter better?

What is cocoa butter? It’s a natural, meltable oil that’s extracted from the cocoa beans, which are seeds from the Theobroma cacao L. plant. It’s the fat source used to make chocolate and is also great for naturally moisturizing skin. Raw cacao butter is food grade and can be used in cooking and chocolate making. However, we are a cosmetic company and we sell cocoa butter for cosmetic purposes. Can I use raw cocoa butter on my face? To make cocoa butter, cocoa beans are first fermented and then roasted. At this point, the cocoa “butter” (which isn’t actually the kind of butter made from any type of milk at all) is able to be separated from the rest of the beans, leaving behind solids that are used for other purposes, like making cocoa powder. Coconut oil contains fatty acids that keep skin healthy and clean, including capric acid, lauric acid and caprylic acid. It melts when rubbed into the skin or heated, and it has a smooth feel and pleasant smell/taste. Since they have similar uses and benefits for the skin, it might really come down to preference when it comes to using shea butter versus cocoa butter on your skin. Both are hydrating, time-old ways to treat chapped lips and prevent dryness. You can also use both together to boost their effects, especially if you have eczema or psoriasis.

You can rub a small amount of pure cocoa butter into burnt skin to help skin replenish. Just make sure it’s pure and doesn’t contain any alcohol, fragrances/perfumes or other additives that can lead skin to become even more inflamed and sensitive. Desserts might be its most popular use, but raw cocoa butter also makes a great butter or dairy substitute and can be used in various ways, just like coconut oil. Cocoa butter (sometimes called theobroma oil) is a natural, meltable oil that’s extracted from the cocoa bean. Cocoa beans are seeds from the Theobroma cacao L. plant, a member of the Sterculiaceae plant family.

To get cocoa butter, cacao beans are ground then warmed or pressed to separate the cocoa solids from the fat. Is cocoa butter vegan? Yes, since it doesn’t actually contain any real butter (a dairy product) at all but rather comes from a plant. Final Thoughts Because it’s so stable, it’s believed to last for more than two years. Many people keep the same jar of cocoa butter for two to five years, since its saturated fat is resilient against rancidity and spoilage. Another common use of cocoa butter is to soothe skin irritation and smooth dry skin, wrinkles, scars, and other marks on the skin. Also, it helps heal rashes from conditions like dermatitis and eczema.
