This butter has visible healing properties, and it blends with carrier oils to make a perfect lotion. If you don't like the smell, add a fragrant essential. I use apricot kernel oil. It took me several times to find the right ratio of "oil to butter." My suggestion: mix at room temperature.

This buuter is interesting to me, in brazil they eat this butter because of it's nutrients, so I was unsure about using it in my skin care products. However when using this product I find that it does lock in moisture on my skin, nice product.
