Frequently asked questions

Does cocoa butter protect from the sun?

No. It is not a sunscreen. In the sun, use a suitable sun protection product, and keep cocoa butter for dry areas.

It is very hard: how do I use it?

That is normal: it is firm when cool. Scrape off a little with a fingernail or a spatula, then let it melt between your fingers. It melts on contact with skin.

Its texture changed after melting. Is that normal?

Yes. Once melted, cocoa butter can set again in a different form, with a different texture. For a smoother homemade balm, melt it gently in a bain-marie, then let it cool somewhere cool.
