Nourishing whipped butter with shea, cocoa and exotic notes
This homemade whipped butter is a true caress for the skin. Its light and airy texture contrasts with its richness in nourishing active ingredients, making it a treatment that is comforting, protective, and sensorial all at once. Formulated with plant-based butters and gentle oils, it intensely nourishes the skin while leaving it supple and satiny.
Cocoa butter , known for its protective properties and richness in antioxidants, helps preserve skin hydration and provides softness and elasticity. It is combined with shea butter , renowned for its repairing and soothing properties, ideal for dry, sensitive, or uncomfortable skin. Sweet almond oil , very gentle and well-tolerated, balances the formula, providing suppleness and comfort without weighing the skin down.
For a silky and non-greasy feel, the addition of white clay helps to absorb excess oil and obtain a velvety finish, while the emulsifying wax contributes to the hold and whipped texture of the treatment.
In terms of fragrance, essential oils bring a subtle and refined olfactory dimension: distilled white grapefruit , fresh and invigorating, illuminates the formula with its fruity notes, while ylang-ylang , with its floral and exotic accents, invites relaxation and harmony. Together, they transform the application into a true moment of well-being.
