Pine and Bedford's Green Body Butter is an exquisite blend of Aloe Vera Gel, Organic Mango Butter, Organic Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter, and other high-end oils like Tangerine, with Vitamin E and Camelia Seed Oil. I harvest the main ingredient - Aloe Vera gel, from my own plants that are grown without chemical fertilizers.
It's fresh cucumber and green-floral scent is 'to die for'. We whip it to combine the oils and butters so it melts on contact with skin. A little goes a long way. Unfortunately the photo below has a lot of glare and air bubble in the label that I could not completely eradicate. As this is a whipped butter, we are reluctant to ship this in the summer months, and it will deflate.
Directions: Apply a dime-sized amount to skin and rub it in. Give it 30 to 40 seconds to fully absorb. It rubs on more like a lotion, not a butter. It starts out quite greasy (particularly if you use to much - so go low and slow). It isn't greasy once absorbed. It's pure awesome. If it does feel greasy - scale back on the amount used, rub some on another dry area, or give it a little more time to absorb.
The Tin has a net weight of approximately: 69 g / 2.45 oz. It measures approximately: Diameter: 6.3 cm / 2.5 inches. Depth: 2.5 cm / 1 inches.
I initially made this product for myself to conquer dry skin on elbow, and on the bottom of my feet. I initially packaged this in a much larger jar, but it came with a heavy $30+ price tag. We have made it more accessible by packaging it in a smaller jar.
