Benefits of Mango Butter for skin and hair care formulations
Mango butter is a lightweight, fast absorbing, moisturising butter that can be used in a variety of skin and hair care formulations due to its versatility. It is particularly suited for use in light creams and lotions, as it offers skin rejuvenating benefits without leaving skin feeling weighed down or greasy. As an emollient, mango butter has excellent antioxidative properties, helping bolster the skin’s natural moisture barrier, and creating intensely nourishing moisturisers. Mango butter is also a great choice for hair care products, as its non-greasy application keeps hair moisturised, healthy, and resilient to damage whilst preventing build up.
