The most common question we get is, what's the difference between body butter and cream is texture and oil concentration.

Well, body butters, are thicker, creamy, and often last longer than both lotion and cream.

Body butters use a combination of carrier oils and essential butters and do not typically contain water. Carrier oils are the substances that are used to hold and deliver the essential ingredients into the skin. Butters are the essential fats and minerals that are extracted from natural ingredients. Each butter will vary in its unique texture, rigidity, and absorbency. These ingredients (carrier oil and butter) are combined, sometimes with additional specialized ingredients, (the secret formulas of every brand!) to formulate a body butter product. While some can be hard, we keep ours a little on the softer side.

Body butters are applied to retain moisture, lubricate and nourish the skin. Our butters absorb into the skin quickly, without leaving an oily barrier.

Cream products are thinner than body butters and are typically whipped. Creams usually contain the same basic ingredients as butters, plus water-based ingredients, including aloe, hydrosol or a flower water. We do include beeswax as a type of mild and all-natural thickener. Our cream isn’t as thick as a butter, and not as liquid as a lotion.

Shipping during extreme heat may alter the texture of our Body Butters and Creams.  If the product has melted when you receive it, put it in the refrigerator for a few minutes so it can resolidify, and allow time for the product to warm to room temperature before use.  

We do our best to account for the weather prior to shipping, however, melding/freezing does not affect the wonderful skin nourishing benefits, and the products are still completely safe to use.
