Botanical Name:Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil
Description: Olive butter is obtained from cold pressed olives and collected when the oil is refined to remove the unsaponifiables. Olive butter has a smooth, creamy texture although on occasions may be grainy due to the manufacturing process.
This butter has excellent emollient and antioxidant properties making it a natural moisturizer. If sensitivity to Shea butter develops, Olive butter is a good substitute as it exhibits many of the same characteristics. With many natural essential fatty acids and unsaponifiables, Olive butter is an essential ingredient for anti-aging products.
Olive Butter exhibits good spread-ability on the skin, making it ideal as a massage butter or body balm, and it can be added to soap, creams, lotions, lip balms, body butters, hair pomades, bath bombs and more.
It should be stored in a cool dark place and has a shelf-life of approximately 2 years when stored properly.
Recommended Usage:
• Lotions & Creams: 2 – 5 %
• Balms: 5 – 10 %
• Bar Soaps: 2 – 6 %
• Hair Conditioners: 3 – 5 %
Please Note: As with any manufacturing process, New Directions Aromatics encourages small, lab scale manufacturing for evaluation purposes prior to full commercial manufacturing.
