Cocoa Butter

Cocoa butter is a natural ingredient that is commonly used in all-natural, beeswax-based balms due to its many medicinal benefits including:

1. Moisturizing: Cocoa butter is an excellent moisturiser that helps to hydrate and nourish the skin. When used in a balm, it can help to soothe dry and chapped skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth.
2. Anti-inflammatory: Cocoa butter contains anti-inflammatory properties that can help to reduce inflammation and redness in the skin. When used in a balm, it can help to alleviate discomfort and irritation associated with skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.
3. Antioxidant: Cocoa butter is rich in antioxidants that can help to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. When used in a balm, it can help to promote healthy, radiant skin.
4. Anti-aging: Cocoa butter contains natural compounds that can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. When used in a balm, it can help to promote a more youthful complexion.
5. Healing: Cocoa butter contains natural compounds that can help to heal and soothe damaged skin. When used in a balm, it can help to promote the healing of minor cuts, scrapes, and burns.
6. Stretch mark prevention: Cocoa butter is commonly used to prevent stretch marks during pregnancy. When used in a balm, it can help to maintain the skin’s elasticity and prevent the formation of stretch marks.
7. Aromatherapy benefits: Cocoa butter has a rich, chocolatey aroma that can have a calming effect on the mind and body.
