Our Kokum butter is unrefined so has a slight off-white colour compared to refined which is white. Please note it has a natural characteristic aroma decreasing the % in your formulation will make this less noticible.
Kokum is a relatively hard butter that does not apply well as a “stand alone” application. It is most suitable for being blended with other ingredients to make it more pliable when you are developing exquisite body care products.
