Avocado Butter is designed for topical use, and is formulated with 100% pure, ultra-refined Avocado Oil for its fatty acids. Added non-GMO Soy Butter affords an odorless white base that is soft but rich, and melts quickly on contact with the skin.
Aromatic Description: Mild to no scent.
Common Uses: Avocado Oil is popular for the hydration of dry, mature skin, and hair. This product is soft at room temperature and slowly melts on contact with the skin, and may be used from 3% in a product to 100% as a body balm. Especially helpful to nails and cuticles, it may be used to enhance the emollience of a variety of formulations including lotions, creams, after-sun products, conditioners, body butters, luxury soaps, baby-care products and lip balms.
When adding a butter to creams and lotions, it might be necessary to gently warm it until melted or very soft in texture, and can be incorporated into the final product. Using a hand blender, create a vortex with your cream or lotion and drizzle in your melted butter until fully incorporated and consistently smooth. For addition in soaps, the general rule of thumb is one tablespoon per pound (15 ml/500 g). As with most raw materials, results may vary, so we strongly recommend small, lab-scale batches prior to any commercial manufacturing.
Recommended Storage: Please note that this butter should ideally be stored in a refrigerator to maintain its texture. It will become soft in warmer temperatures.
Shelf Life: Store in cool temperatures (below 25 °C) away from light and moisture in an air-tight container. The product will become liquid above ambient temperatures (e.g., 36 °C), but will re-solidify upon cooling without affecting functionality. This butter has a shelf-life of one year when stored properly.

Rating: I love this avocado butter. I have been purchasing it for two years now. Each time it is perfect. The consistency is creamy. The bucket isn’t impossible to open. Thank you! My customers love my whipped body butters made with this avocado butter. Love it!

Rating: I adore this butter!! It is smooth and easy to work with. My customers love it! I will be making whipped body butter with it. The best thing is the awesome lid on the bucket. I don’t need a pry bar to get the lid off!!!! I’ve been exceedingly happy with my end product (cp soap) when using this butter.

Rating: I love the feeling with this butter very smooth not too greasy.
By:Rose, American Canyon, California Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 26-Sep-2016
Rating: Very disappointed by this product. I make a Whipped Body Butter using Avocado Butter from 2 of my other suppliers and thought to cut costs I'd use ND. However, upon making another batch with this version, I find it to be too greasy and not at all the normal thick consistency that I offer.
By:Tracy, Hamburg, Pennsylvania Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Jan-2017
Rating: My customers love the feel of this butter. A best seller!
Rating: I had no idea what to expect when I ordered this butter; I've worked with cocoa, mango, Kokum and Shea before but never avocado. The texture is soft and easily spreadable. It glides on the skin and doesn't drag the way some of the more firm butters do. The texture is perfect and it sinks in readily, within a minute my skin felt soft but without any trace of greasiness. I highly recommend avocado butter for body care and I can't wait to try it in soaps.
Rating: Ok,This butter is divine! The spread-ability of this butter is amazing! It seeps right into the pores and is so creamy. It isn't greasy at all. Its smooth as Sweet Almond Butter but has a lighter note to it. I want to add this to a deep conditioner I know my clients will love! I'm obsessed with this butter!
Rating: This avocado butter is great quality and is great for lotions and hair moisturizers. Very happy with this purchase!

Rating: I have never worked with avocado butter, so I wasn't exactly sure what to expect when I received it. After using it in a batch of cold process soap, several body butters, and a few lip balms, I can safely say that it is one of my favorite butters! However, it does have a slightly gritty texture, and it is a bit on the expensive side. I have ridiculously dry skin and was recently diagnosed with nummular eczema, and I just soften some avocado butter and shea butter, mix it up, and rub some onto my problem spots. Has a very neutral scent and very easily melts and mixes with other butters and oils. Great mixed with shea for a lotion base.

Rating: I tried a sample of this butter and love it my only complaint is that it's a bit on the pricy side, other than that I love it, it's great for my family's dry skin
By:Rose, Saint Albans, New York Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 08-May-2013
Rating: Smooth, soft, and creamy (blends easily), this avocado butter helps to re-nourish and soften your hair and your skin! I added this to the organic shea butter I ordered from this site with some jojoba oil and a hint of vanilla to scent. One word: AMAZING!

Rating: My daughter not only has exceedingly dry, ecxema prone skin, she has dense, tough, dry, not-chemically treated african hair. And this butter-wow! used as a direct conditioner and as a heat protectant and her hair drank it up and sighed in joy. Her sister and I were amazed. I have hitherto used mostly home-made shea based products for her, but I am thinking this is manna to her skin and am going to figure out how to incorporate more into her cares. Not any really noticeable aroms, it is soft straight from fridge and is not oily. Creamy definately. Soaks in nicely.

Rating: This butter is beautiful!! It's very smooth and is great for lipbalms!!!! Very little scent.
By:Laura, Niagara Falls, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: Wonderful soft butter for body butters, balms, lotions, or to add to lipbalms. Super emolient, neutral smell and color, and smooth texture.

Rating: This does have a grainy texture, but I've been told that means it is less refined and, therefore, better quality. It melts into your skin right out of the container and the little clumps melts very quickly with your body heat. It seems completely scent free to me which I like.
By:Christina, Woodbridge, New Jersey Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 14-May-2010
Rating: Excellent product. Just purchased this and some soy butter and am wondering why I waited so long. Its creamy and melts easily so really great for skin. The service was also excellent, fast with lost of options for payment which I appreciate. Again great job NDA. Keep this butter comin:-)

Rating: Very nice! I was looking forward in finding out how it would feel straight out of the jar. I like the fact that it is solid at room temperature that easily comes out of the jar BUT the only thing is --- I wish it didn`t have such a grainy feel to it.

Rating: I just made my first batch of avocado butter lotion from scratch and love its ability to melt into the skin, similar to coconut oil, but not greasy.
A bit grainy, but I may have to adjust my temperatures in the processing.
By:Tracey, Toronto, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: wonderful fresh scent, very moisturizing and a great addition to products
Rating: avocado butter is a must have butter because of it spreads smooth and absorved fast by the skin leaving it soft and hydrated, plus all the vitamins that has is a really wonderful butter. i also use it on my face when the winter comes and in the summer for a nice glow that's not greasy. Does wonder for the hair. higly recommended melted with mango butter a little shea, grape seed oil and rose geranium essential oil for a beautiful balm / butter. ENJOY!
