Kerala Coconut & Wheatgerm Body Butter

This award-winning ultra-moisturising body butter uses Kerala-sourced, certified organic, virgin coconut oil - the highest quality coconut oil available. Kerala coconuts are renowned for their superior nutrient content and purity. The cold-pressed virgin coconut oil works in perfect harmony with a host of other classic Ayurvedic ingredients to create an expertly formulated body butter. Coconut butter acts as a natural moisturiser, promotes skin elasticity, and fights free radicals to maintain a youthful complexion. At 5% concentration in the formula (extra virgin coconut oil), it provides deep nourishment without being greasy. The organic certification ensures no pesticides or chemicals, just pure coconut goodness.

Cold-pressed Wheatgerm (Triticum Aestivum) Oil at 2% is useful for fighting skin dryness whilst treating acne, scar marks, and skin inflammation. Wheatgerm oil is rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids that deeply nourish dry, dull, and flaky skin. It helps with wrinkle reduction, dry skin moisturisation, and treatment of age spots. The moisturising effect aids in skin protection whilst the nutrients penetrate deep into skin layers. However, important note: Wheatgerm oil is not safe for coeliacs and gluten-intolerant individuals, as wheat proteins can potentially cause reactions even in topical applications. For those without gluten sensitivity, it's an exceptionally beneficial ingredient for restoring suppleness and elasticity.

This body butter features several classical Ayurvedic ingredients: Kumari (Aloe Barbadensis) Swarasa at 5% for soothing and healing. Javitri (Myristica Fragrans - Mace) at 4% for its aromatic and skin-conditioning properties. Ashwagandha (Withania Somnifera) at 2% for its adaptogenic and rejuvenating qualities. Himalayan Wild Cherry (Prunus Cerasoides) at 2% for antioxidant benefits. Yashtimadhu (Glycyrrhiza Glabra) at 2% for brightening and soothing. Usheer (Vetiveria Zizanioides) at 2% for its cooling properties. Indian Sarasa Parilla (Hemisdesmus Indicus) Extract at 0.5% for purification. These traditional ingredients work synergistically to support skin health whilst the modern formulation ensures stability and ease of application.

Note: The product description states 'Take out the required amount of hair cream on your palm. Apply directly on damp or towel-dried hair' but this appears to be an error - this is a body butter, not hair cream. For body butter application: Take the required amount on your palm and apply to body skin, particularly focusing on dry areas like elbows, knees, and feet. Best applied after showering when skin is still slightly damp to lock in moisture. Massage gently until absorbed - the rich texture provides deep hydration. The 100g jar provides approximately 30-50 applications depending on coverage. Use daily or as needed for dry skin. The body butter helps restore suppleness and elasticity to dry, dull, and flaky skin.

Always perform a patch test before use to check for any allergic reactions or skin sensitivity. For patch test, apply on the back of your elbow for 15 minutes and observe. Avoid contact with eyes. Important: This product contains wheatgerm oil, making it unsuitable for individuals with coeliac disease or gluten intolerance. The paraben-free formulation uses natural preservatives (Potassium Sorbate, Gluconolactone, Sodium Gluconate, Ethylhexylglycerin) that are safer for long-term use. Other beneficial carrier oils include Cold Pressed Sunflower Seed Oil, Cold Pressed Rosehip Seed Oil, and Cold Pressed Moringa Seed Oil. Shea Butter provides additional deep conditioning. The formula supports hydration whilst being gentle on skin.
