Carrot butter is a bright yellowish solid butter made by a combination of carrot oil and hydrogenated vegetable oil. Carrot Oil is rich in beta-carotene, Vitamin B, C, D and E, and essential fatty acids. This butter can be added to creams or lotions to make them ultra-rich and improve the hydration and smooth texture of the skin. This exotic butter spreads well, making it an excellent choice for massage butter or as a base for moisturizing products.

Common Uses: Solid butter, excellent for making rich lip balms as well as, skin, nail, and hair care products.

Recommended Usage:

• Lotions & Creams: 2 - 20 %
• Balms: 5 – 100 %
• Bar Soaps: 5 - 20 %
• Hair Conditioners/ Pomades: 1 – 10 %

When adding butter to creams and lotions, it might be necessary to gently warm the butter before incorporating it into the final product. Using a hand blender, you can create a vortex with your cream or lotion and then drizzle your melted butter in, to fully incorporate it. For addition to soaps, the general rule of thumb is 1 tablespoon per pound (15 g / 500 g). As with most raw materials, results may vary, so we strongly recommend preparing small, lab-scale batches prior to any commercial manufacturing.

Shelf Life: Store in cool temperatures (below 25 °C) away from light and moisture in an air-tight container. The product may become very soft above ambient temperatures (e.g., 36 °C), but will re-solidify upon cooling without affecting its functionality. This butter has a shelf-life of 18 months when stored properly.
