Perfect ingredient to replace butters

I bought Tribehenin as a replacement for natural butters I was using in an anhydrous balm. I wanted a creamy but lighter feel, and was looking to eliminate the likelihood of crystallization as well. I'm quite please with the results I got with Tribehenin thus far; I'm using together with candelilla wax for additional structure, and it makes lovely balms. A new favorite!
