Cocoa Butter is a rich natural
fat derived from the cacao beans contained inside the pods of the
Cocoa/Cacao Tree.
Cacao is the name given to the
raw, unprocessed beans found in their fruit pods, whereas Cocoa is
the name given to the beans after they have been harvested and
processed.
Used topically, Cocoa Butter
melts at body temperature and works to naturally soothe dry,
sensitive skin while reducing and preventing the appearance of
scars and unwanted marks. It is believed to have photo-protective
properties that protect against harmful UV radiation.
Used in hair, Cocoa Butter
moisturizes strands to make them more manageable. While repairing
damage, Cocoa Butter replenishes naturally-occurring oils, adds
volume and shine, boosts strength and resilience, increases
thickness, and reduces frizz.
