About
Nourishing butter extracted from avocado seeds for deep skin hydration
Obtained by rendering or cold-pressing the fat from Persea gratissima seeds, avocado butter is rich in stearic, oleic, linoleic, and palmitic fatty acids, as well as phytosterols and vitamins A, D, and E. It is widely used in skincare and is not subject to any EU restriction under Regulation 1223/2009. Its fatty acid profile closely mirrors that of human sebum, making it highly biocompatible and well tolerated across all skin types including sensitive skin.
