COCOA SEED BUTTER - THEOBROMA CACAO

Cocoa butter, derived from the cacao bean, is a rich and natural fat widely used in skincare products. It is known for its deep moisturising properties and has been a favourite among skincare enthusiasts for centuries. This guide will explore why cocoa butter is good for the skin, its benefits, and how to incorporate it into your skincare routine.

Famous for its excellent emollient properties, we source our cocoa butter from West Africa, where fermented beans of the cocoa tree are roasted, cracked and ground to givea powdery solid called cocoa mass, from which cocoa butter is pressed.

SKINCARE BENEFITS OF COCOA BUTTER:

MELTS AWAY MAKE UP

“The naturally emollient cocoa butter in our hero cleanser helps dissolve dirt, impurities and make up without drying the skin. Rich in moisturising fatty acids, cocoa butter melts on contact with the skin, giving Cleanse & Polish™ Hot Cloth Cleanser its luxurious, rich texture.” - James Wong

BOOSTS HYDRATION

Cocoa butter is an excellent moisturiser, providing hydration by creating a protective barrier on the skin's surface to help lock in moisture. It is therefore especially beneficial for those with dry skin.
