MANGO BUTTER

 /mangifera indica/

We love it as a fruit, and love it even more as a butter! Mango butter is a great addition to your skincare regimen, especially if you’re seeking supple, moisturized skin.  This butter comes from the natural fat of the mango seed, and is comparable to shea butter and cocoa butter in its skin enriching properties.

Why do we love this butter?

It increases the skin’s elasticity, and helps reduce fine lines, giving your skin that natural, firm appearance.

It melts quickly into your skin without being greasy, which is great if you are looking to avoid a butter that’ll clog your pores. Mango butter is gentle on the skin and is a great alternative butter for those with sensitive skin. If you’re looking for a baby moisturizer, mango butter is a great place to start if you want something gentle enough for your baby!

Mango butter helps maintain moisture levels in your skin. If you have naturally dry skin, and as you enter dry, wintry seasons, your skin requires products that help keep moisture in your skin.  Mango butter creates a protective layer over your skin that helps keep your skin from moisture loss, thereby allowing your skin to be smooth and supple, eliminating dryness.

Rich in vitamin C and vitamin E, mango butter helps protect your skin from environmental stressors like pollution, and blue light from your skin, which lead to skin damage and premature aging.

Moreover, its anti-inflammatory properties help soothe dry, itchy skin caused by eczema, psoriasis flare-ups. By strengthening the skin’s natural protective barrier, it helps your skin retain moisture thereby preventing flareups, itchiness, and dryness.

The vitamin A contained in this butter stimulates the skin’s natural renewal process. This process encourages the skin to produce healthy skin cells, thus improving the skin’s texture and elasticity.

The benefits of mango butter for your skin makes it a staple in your skin care regimen. If you’ve never tried it, we recommend it, especially if you’d like a light weight butter that’s gentle on sensitive skin.
