INCI: Garcinia Indica (Kokum) Butter
Rich in antioxidants and Vitamin E, Kokum butter is often used as a substitute for Cocoa Butter. It's derived from the fruit of India's native Kokum tree, and harbours antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
Kokum butter is one of the hardest and most stable vegetable butters available. It is solid at room temperature but melts immediately when applied to the skin. It has a high fatty acid content, comprising of up to 80% of stearic-oleic-stearic (SOS) triglycerides. It is non-greasy, which makes it great as both a mosturiser and a scalp treatment. It is an excellent emollient and absorbs quickly into the skin, promoting elasticity and skin regeneration.
Traditionally, Kokum butter has been used traditionally to treat infections, digestive disorders, and even arthritis.

Lovely Kokum.. after I re-melted it
The kokum arrived very granulated making it completely unusable, luckily there is an easy fix, you will need to remelt the kokum butter in a double boiler over a low heat until it is completely clear, this can take a while, then pour it into whatever you wish to store it in, I poured mine into silicon moulds so I could access smaller portions when I need them. You will need to rapidly cool the butter in the freezer to avoid granulation. Unmould and store. It should now be smooth and creamy in texture.

Great for making solid conditioner
It does not have very strong smell which I'd liked compared to Cocoa butter.

Another lovely butter
Great to use in moisturisers but it's lacking the lovely smell kokum has.

5 Stars
This Kokum Butter is an excellent alternative to Shea and Cocoa Butter. It is light and easily absorbs into the skin. Always excellent products and quick delivery.
