Ingredient Reference

What is in every butter, and why it is there. Nothing hidden. Everything disclosed.

Foundation of every butter

The shared base

Ingredient
What it brings to your skin
Unrefined Shea Butter
The heart of the formula, a rich, deeply nourishing butter traditionally used on very dry skin.
Unrefined Cocoa Butter
Naturally rich with a warm, chocolate scent. Gives the butter its structure and a long, slow release of moisture.
Fractionated Coconut Oil
The lightweight carrier that makes the butter absorb cleanly without greasiness.
Jojoba Oil
The closest plant oil to the skin's own natural sebum.
Vitamin E
A plant-derived antioxidant that protects the formula and supports the look of healthy skin.

This base is shared across most of our body butters, with Calendula built on a lightly modified version to carry its hand-infused botanical. What makes each scent distinct is the plant added at the finish.
