About this Product: 
The 96% natural formulation is packed full of minerals, antioxidants and vitamins that work together to instantly renew dull and dry skin. Hero ingredients Shea Butter, Almond Oil and Coconut Oil moisturise while lemongrass imbues the butter with a beautifully natural scent. Full of plant-based oils like Seabuckthorn and Grape Seed, this butter has plenty of antioxidants and fatty acids for healthy, happy skin. What’s more, it absorbs easily and doesn’t feel heavy on the face or body. 

Treatment Type:
Face and body moisturiser

Key Benefits: 

Almond Oil is packed with vitamins A, B, D and E, which promote healing, protection and cell turnover, while nutritive fatty acids have been found to soften, moisturise, and replenish the skin. Dry skin in particular loves it for its smoothing and softening effects.₁

Coconut Oil is extracted from the fruit of the coconut tree, and is full of fatty acids and proteins which nourish the skin. Containing lauric acid, it can also combat acne due to the way the acid reduces inflammation and bacteria.₂

Shea Butter is known for its smoothing and moisturising action on dry skin. More than this though, it can regenerate and soothe the skin, protects  from external factors like UV rays, and is rich in antioxidants and skin-loving vitamins A, E, and F. 

Lemongrass is pivotal to our Lemon Butter. It provides that signature fresh, natural scent that our customers know and love.

This butter is suited to all skin types

Ingredient Benefits:

Aqua (Water)

Water acts as a solvent for other ingredients in a skincare product

Cetearyl Alcohol

This can soothe and soften the skin, and it gives a product its slippery texture. Skincare with cetearyl alcohol can still be “alcohol free” as the effects are completely unlike skin-aggravating forms of alcohol₃

Stearic Acid (Shea Butter)

This fatty acid is used as an emollient and emulsifier. It has been shown to protect the skin’s moisture barrier, and vitamins A, E and F help to improve cell turnover and protect against free radicals.₄

Glycerin

Glycerin is a compound that naturally occurs in our skin. It helps to protect against irritation, strengthens the skin’s moisture barrier and it’s a humectant – a quality which means it retains water₅

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

Considered to be a great emollient and moisturiser for the skin. It has fatty acids that can repair the skin barrier and reduce loss of moisture₆

Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil

Containing lauric acid, it can also combat acne due to the way it reduces inflammation and bacteria, and helps to repair the skin

Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil

Grape seed oil is packed with skin-barrier repairing fatty acids and vitamin E along with potent antioxidants that reduce the wear and tear of environmental damage on the skin₈

Phenoxyethanol

Though synthetic, this preservative occurs naturally in green tea. It’s a very popular preservative in skincare as it’s effective in concentrations less than 1%₉

Benzyl Alcohol

This organic alcohol occurs naturally in some teas and fruits like apricots and cranberries, and is used as a preservative

Sodium Hydroxide

Allantoin

A by-product of uric acid, allantoin is considered to be an effective skin-soothing and moisturising agent₁₂

Disodium EDTA

EDTA is short for ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid and it works as a stabiliser so products will stay nicer for longer

Citral

Found in lemongrass, verbena, lemon and orange oils, citral is used for its fresh scent
