Description

Avocado Butter – A Deeply Nourishing Butter for Dry, Mature Skin & Resilient Formulations

Avocado Butter is a rich, skin conditioning butter formulated for topical use using 100% pure, unrefined Avocado Oil, naturally abundant in essential fatty acids, phytosterols, and skin-supportive lipids. Blended with hydrogenated vegetable oil, it forms a soft, odourless, off-white butter that delivers intense nourishment while maintaining excellent stability and a refined cosmetic feel.

This thoughtfully balanced structure allows Avocado Butter to melt quickly on contact with the skin, delivering deep emollience without heaviness. Its luxurious texture and nutrient profile make it especially suited for dry, mature, and compromised skin, as well as for hair and scalp formulations requiring softness, protection, and long-lasting moisture.

Avocado Butter performs beautifully both as a standalone balm and as a functional lipid phase ingredient, enhancing texture, richness, and skin affinity across a wide range of cosmetic formulations.
