What is Cocoa Butter?

Cocoa butter is not just the chocolate goodness we use to tantalize our taste buds, Cocoa Butter is actually a type of vegetable fat that is extracted from cocoa beans. The other name for cocoa butter is Theobroma oil. Cocoa butter makes an excellent skin moisturizer, although, it does more than just hydrate the skin — it helps to actually heal it from the inside out, too.

Here are some benefits of Cocoa Butter:

Antioxidant:
Cocoa Butter is high in antioxidants which help fight off free radical damage to the skin. Free radicals cause skin aging, dark patches, and dull skin.

Stretch Mark Reducer: 
Palmer's has devoted an entire range to fight off stretch marks with Cocoa Butter as the star ingredient.

Deep Hydration: 
Cocoa Butter is high in fatty acids and hydrates the skin deeply, making it a wonderful addition to body moisturizers and lip balms.

Sensitive Skin Healer: 
Cocoa Butter has been noted to help and soothe skin irritations such as eczema.
