Gift idea: This essential oil fragrance combination pairs well with orange and clove soap.
Shea butter is the most absorbant butter that we can use on our skin, so we use this at over 60% to get maximum benefit. When combined with sweet almond oil, argan oil and jojoba oil, all easily absorbed oils, this combination makes for a nourishing body butter, soothing even the driest skin. Arrowroot gives the body butter a beautiful silky, non-greasy, feel. There is no water added to this formulation, making our body butter long lasting as a little goes a long way.
