Mango Butter – Saturday Surprise Special

When I opened up the Mango Butter and the fresh scent wafted out, I knew I had to try a body butter with it. I liked the White Refined Shea/Monoi de Tahiti Body Butter Recipe that I made a few weeks ago so well that I decided to tweak that recipe.

I’m glad I did, it’s my new favourite (until the next time I decide to start playing).

So it seemed the obvious thing to introduce Mango Butter as the Saturday Surprise Special this week.

You can get the recipe here – Quick and Easy Mango Body Butter Recipe.

You can also read about how I did a ‘slow melt’ to keep the grains out of the finished body butter.

Here’s a little about it.

ABOUT MANGO BUTTER

Scent- Fresh – blends well with citrus. Note: this is not a fruity traditional mango scent. Mango butter is taken from the kernel of the Mango seed. Most if not all mango scented items are fragrance oils.

Mango Butter is said to be helpful in regenerative activity and to restore flexibility and reduce degeneration of skin cells. It’s a favourite of dermatologists for treatment of wrinkles – it’s said that a noticeable difference in 4 – 6 weeks of daily use.

A few other things you can use mango butter for are minor wounds and rough dry skin (it helps to keep the skin supple and provides a protective barrier – this also helps to prevent scarring), stretch marks, excema and psoriasis.

I like it because it feels amazingly silky and smooth, soaks in very well and it’s almost like a clear canvass – it can be tweaked in many different ways by adding essential oils, carrier oils or clays etc.
