Shorea Stenoptera, also commonly referred to as Illipe butter, is a very unique, sought-after butter. It is an all-natural butter. Illipe butter is naturally obtained from Shorea Stenoptera. The nuts of the Shorea stenoptera seed contain fat that is sustainably harvested, expeller(cold) pressed, and then refined and deodorized for cosmetic use. The end product is similar to cocoa butter with a higher melting point. Illipe is ideal for making personal care products like body butter, creams, lotions, skincare, lip care products, balms, and hair care products like conditioners. It helps stabilize emulsions due to the uniform triglyceride composition and has emollient properties making it a very stable replacement for many synthetic emollience enhancers. The butter has an excellent softening effect and good spreadability characteristics. Illipe butter prevents dry skin due to its humectant and moisture-binding properties. It is the perfect choice for helping dry & irritated skin conditions and is suitable for wrinkles & the treatment of sun-damaged skin.
Note: When ordering natural butter or oil, it is important to recognize that exposure to elevated temperatures during shipping or processing can affect its texture. In such instances, the butter may become liquefied, but it can be subsequently emulsified and rapidly cooled, resulting in a smoother, more homogeneous consistency upon solidification. Additionally, a white film may appear on the top layer. That is normal and is referred to as fat blossom. It is a thin layer of separated fats from the product.
