If you're like me, you're probably wondering how I ended up selling body butters. Especially since my first career was in IT for 30 years. Well, this all started back in November 2018 when I was sitting in a coworker's office talking about dry and cracked feet. I went home that night and decided to do something with the shea butter, vitamin E oil, beeswax, and coconut oil I had sitting around. Melted them all together, and filled up half cup mason jars and let it cool. I affectionately named it "the decrustifier" because it made my feet wonderfully smooth and soft. After confirming that it worked (that took 3 days) I shared it with my coworker. She used it and loved it. She suggested that I sell these in my retirement that was fast approaching. I gave her another jar for her birthday and she was so happy she actually jumped up and down. That told me I was on to something. For Christmas 2019, I gave my sister coca butter body butter (2 x 8oz) and shea butter body butter (2 x 4oz). She opened it at 12:05am on Christmas day. We all went to bed and later that day we had the following conversation:
Around that same time I started researching what I'd need if I actually wanted to start the business. I spoke to my friends about my formula and learned that beeswax might clog pores (I've since learned that it does not). So I removed that from my recipe. Also learned that heating the shea, mango, and cocoa butters changes them ever so slightly so I took that out of the recipe too.
We started this journey because of chemical sensitivity. Needed moisturizers that were not filled with unnecessary chemicals. No matter which body butter you're looking for, we guarantee quality. All of the body butters we use are USDA certified organic. Our goal is to provide products you can trust.
Cocoa butter prices have gone up 258% so far this year.
“About 70% of the world’s cocoa is grown in West Africa, international trade association CropLife International reports. The rising prices are a result of lackluster, weather-related crop yields in West Africa. El Niño—above-average sea surface temperatures in the Pacific Ocean that affects global climate patterns—has caused warmer temperatures and heavy rains in the region, which has resulted in a decline in crop yields. The ICCO attributed “unseasonal heavy rains” as the main reason the cocoa supply was affected late last year. These heavy rains have led to the spread of a fungal infection called black pod disease. This disease infects the pods, roots, stems, shoots and flower cushions of cocoa trees, causing beans to rot internally. It typically occurs during rainy seasons and is spread when rain splashes on the plants.”
So, when we're out of cocoa butter we will not be restocking until cocoa prices are back to normal.

Water combined with an organic butter, organic unrefined jojoba oil, an emulsifying wax (Organic Glyceryl Monostearate), co-emulsifiers (stearic acid and cetyl cohol), a preservative (Optiphen plus), and an optional fragrance oil ( Clary Sage essential oil, lemongrass essential oil, lavender essential oil, or Mango fragrance oil).
Sunscreen made by adding non-nano zinc oxide to water combined with organic shea butter, sweet almond oil, an emulsifying wax (Organic Glyceryl Monostearate), co-emulsifiers (stearic acid & cetyl cohol), a preservative (Optiphen plus), xantham gum, and eucalyptus citriada essential oil.
These butters are made by combining the organic butter with water, organic vegetable glycerin, an emulsifier, a co emulsifier, a preservative, and hyaluronic acid. Because they contain a preservative they should be applied to any part of the body except the lips. Three versions are currently available: organic luxurious shea butter, organic luxurious cocoa butter, and organic luxurious body butter (a combination of organic mango butter, organic jojoba oil, and organic Shea butter)
This butter adds 10% DL-Panthenol to the Organic Luxurious Shea butter. The body converts this ingredient to vitamin B5 which speeds up the healing of injuries to the skin. It is also a humectant that draws moisture to itself. Burns, cuts, scrapes, sunburn, and other skin injuries heal faster then they would without this ingredient. This butter also includes more humectants more organic vegetable glycerin, more hyaluronic acid.
There are six different soaps: Shea Butter, Two Coconuts, Two Olives, Castile, wet shaving, and Two Butters. They're available unscented and lavender scented. Lavender essential oil and Alkanet infused oil is added to the lavender scented soaps.
The Organic Shea Butter soap is Shea butter, coconut oil, castor oil, and sodium hydroxide.
The Organic Two Coconuts soap is saponified coconut oil and coconut oil.
The Two Olives soap is made of saponified olive oil and olive oil.
The Castile soap is made by combining olive oil, coconut oil, castor oil, water, and sodium hydroxide (lye).
The Organic Two Butters soap is made by combining palm kernel oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, castor oil, water, and sodium hydroxide (lye).
The wet shaving soap is made with soy wax, cocoa butter, palm kernel oil, castor oil, sodium hydroxide, and potassium hydroxide. There is an unscented, lavender scented, and barber shoppe scented version of this soap.
There's also 1) a pine tar soap made by adding kiln burned pine tar to the two olives soap ingredients and a 2) oatmeal milk and honey scented version of the two butters soap.
We have wet shaving sets made up of a stainless steel bowl, shaving soap, and asilvertip badger hair brush. The brushes are available with a rose wood or acrylic handle. There are black, purple, orange, red, and faux bull horn color options for the brush handles.
