Mango Butter - Mango Butter is extracted from the fruit kernels of the Mango tree. This butter is solid at room temperatures but melts upon contact with skin (approximately 87 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit (ca. 32 °C)).
INCI: Mangifera indica
Shelf life: 1 year
SAP value: 184
Country of Origin: Netherlands
Lotions and Creams: try 2 to 20% Body and Lip Balms: try 5 to 100% Bar Soap: try 3 to 12.5% Caution: Do melt your mango butter over a double boiler as if it is heated to quickly it becomes grainy.
Shea and mango are very high in unsaponifiable matter. If they are incorrectly heated, upon solidification they will form little fat granules or crystals that feel bumpy to the skin. These bumps will melt down when rubbed into the skin, but they can be annoying and unsatisfactory if added to a formulation that is supposed to be smooth.
To remove the graininess from your shea or mango butters simply heat the butter in a double boiler on the stove top. Gas works best as it keeps a more steady temperature than electric. Heat the butter to 170-185F. This is NOT hot enough to damage the properties of the butters. Keep the temperature steady - between 170-185F - for 10-15 minutes. The steady heat will cause the fat crystals to be obliterated. Rapid cooling may help stop the crystals from reforming. If you find that crystals have reformed upon solidification, go back and repeat these steps, paying close attention to time and temps.

I have switched out my Kokum butter to Mango butter in both my shampoo and conditioner bars.
I found that it is much lighter in finished texture and feel, but also easier to rinse off than the Kokum butter. Really happy!
I really like they way they packaged their items very tight because there’s no way the oils will spill
Its a great butter. I used it for my lotion, smoothing and nourishing to my skin.
