Our Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Coconut Butter (hand pressed in Haiti) is a more sophisticated version of Coconut Fat. The scent is more subtle and less overpowering but it offers the same ultra-hydrating benefits to the skin and hair. Coconut is great for moisturising and protecting the skin. It is rich, sensuous and luxurious and it has a high level of slippage which makes it ideal for massaging or using over hairy skin or on the hair.
