Even though I hated the plastic packaging this butter came in, I think I got a good product. I usually use shea butter and cocoa butter for my body butter, but someone suggested mango butter and I think this one was a good bargain. No harsh smell or even the chocolate smell you get from cocoa butter, so it is scent friendly. It came in a bar form in a plastic bag, but the texture itself is like crumbly playdough and it melted easily. Like I said, I hated the original packaging so I transferred my butter into an old 16 ounce container I still had and the measurements of the bar are indeed 16 oz.
Based on this purchase, I would buy this particular product again... all prejudice against the packaging aside.
This mango butter is so nice. I just break off a little bit at a time and rub it around in my palms until it gets soft enough that I can rub it into places like my elbows and heels that need to be very much extra moisturized. I started noticing a difference within 24 hours as to how much softer my skin was. You could add this to other products to change the smell if you like a more fruity smell. In this form the mango butter has a nutty type of smell. I was very pleased and it worked great for what I needed it for!
Absolutely love this butter. I mix it with shea butter add essential oils and use it on my face every day. Looks like it would make my skin oily but it doesn't and it also made the big pores on my nose close so that you can hardly see them at all.
I bought this as a replacement for shea and cocoa butter in the bath products I make. It works SO great! Way better than shea butter and cocoa butter! I've gotten so many compliments on the products I've started to include this in. The moisture is long lasting without leaving a residue or feeling greasy. It has become a staple in many of my recipes. I will say a little goes a LONG way!!
I've been using mango and shea butters all of my life, but just over a year ago switched to only-natural butters skin regimen. I've used mango butter before and this butter has a weird consistency. It's extremely soft as if there's extra chemicals added to it. My skin also wouldn't absorb all of the product. It usually takes a little while with butters BUT this butter literally did the bare minimum. It would just sit on top of my skin, making me all greasy-like. My skin (esp on my shins and forearms) would be tight and dry-ish by the end of the day. My skin is always baby soft and moisturized so that was a first. Conclusion: it's not bad if you need something quick and fast but I wouldn't buy this again.

Description
Mango butter is a great alternative to Shea and Cocoa butter though also a great compliment to them in skin care and cosmetic products. It is readily absorbed by the skin and is light and non-greasy. Due to its mild aroma, it lends itself well to use with essential oils or other natural scented ingredients. It is not tested on animals and therefore cruelty-free.
This mango butter i was worried that it might melt on the way. Nope, the bag is seal-able and it comes in a clear bag inside the brown bag. I read reviews on butter ... many say that this is a nice adjustment for the chapped lips and or skin or hair issues. so my first DIY project is making chapstick. Woohoo.
I used this in my body butter recipe and it worked really well.
Very good mango butter. And I loved the way it was packaged. Will order again when needed.
Good
Love
