Illipe Butter

Illipe Butter

INCI: Shorea stenoptera Seed Butter

Description: Illipe Butter is very similar in nature to cocoa butter but has a higher melting point which makes it suitable for making hard bars of soap. It has a mild characteristic odour and is creamy white in colour.  Illipe Butter helps protects against UV-A and UV-B rays and as such can be found in products promoting sun protection and sunburn relief, while its skin softening and long-lasting moisturising properties make Illipe Butter a good choice to help repair chronically dry, cracked skin. 

Uses: Typically used in lotions, creams, conditioners, body balms, hair balms, bath bombs, bar soaps, lip balms and lotion bars.

Skin Type: Suitable for all skin, especially mature skin, and dry, damaged hair.

Country of Origin: France

Product Type: 100% Pure Butter

Recommended Usage: It is oil soluble (not water soluble) and is usually incorporated via the oil phase when preparing emulsions. It has no known incompatibilities.
