This raw, unrefined kokum butter is presented in an 8 oz solid block, intended for use in soap making, DIY skin and hair care formulations, and as a base for unscented lotions. Derived from the seeds of the Garcinia indica fruit, this butter is processed without refining, bleaching, or deodorizing, preserving its natural composition and mild, nutty aroma. It serves as a stable, plant-based fat that can be incorporated into balms, creams, and body butters to provide a non-greasy, emollient feel on the skin.

The butter is solid at room temperature with a firm, yet brittle texture that melts upon contact with warmth. When used in soap making, it contributes to a hard bar with a creamy lather and mild conditioning properties. For skin care applications, it functions as a moisturizer that absorbs without leaving a heavy residue, making it suitable for normal to combination skin types. It can also be applied as a body butter bar by warming a small piece in the hands and smoothing it over dry areas.

As an unscented product, it does not contain added fragrances or essential oils, allowing for customization with personal scent preferences or other botanical ingredients. Its high concentration of fatty acids, including stearic and oleic acids, supports its role as a protective and softening agent in formulations. This kokum butter is not intended for direct consumption and should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its texture and shelf life. It is a practical ingredient for those who prefer to craft their own skin and hair care items from raw, minimally processed materials.
