Cocoa Butter is a raw, unrefined plant butter widely used in body butters, balms, lip products, soaps, and lotions where a rich, emollient feel is wanted. It melts on contact with the skin, which makes it especially useful in richer oil-phase products and whipped butter-style blends. This version is presented as suitable for cosmetic use and is best treated as a cosmetic raw material rather than a food ingredient.
It has a naturally chocolate-like aroma that gives finished products a warm, recognisable character. Why we love it: We choose to stock Cocoa Butter because it is one of those classic DIY staples that brings both richness and personality to a formula. The raw, unrefined character gives it a more natural feel, and it works beautifully across lip care, body care, and richer emulsions.
