Mango butter: its properties for skin and hair?

Its name already evokes the sunny sweetness of a juicy, fragrant fruit... But mango is not limited to delighting our taste buds: its butter is an exceptional treatment for skin and hair lacking hydration. A true concentrate of natural active ingredients, it intensely nourishes the skin in depth as well as the hair fiber while offering a unique sensory experience. Proof right here.

The composition of mango butter:

At the heart of the mango hides a pit, and in its center, a precious kernel. It is from this kernel, delicately cold-pressed, that mango butter is extracted.
It has a rich and creamy texture, solid at room temperature but which melts and liquefies as soon as it exceeds 30°C, to reveal all its softness.

Mango butter is a concentrate of essential fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants. Its richness makes it an exceptional ally for skin and hair.

Essential fatty acids

• Stearic acid: provides consistency and protection, forms a soft film that retains hydration.
• Oleic acid (omega-9): nourishes and softens skin and hair, restores their elasticity.
• Linoleic acid (omega-6): promotes cell regeneration, balances sebum production.
• Palmitic acid: softens and protects delicate skin.

Vitamins & antioxidants

• Vitamin A (beta-carotene): stimulates cell renewal, adds radiance.
• Vitamin C: protects against oxidative stress, evens out skin tone.
• Vitamin E: powerful natural antioxidant, fights against premature aging.

The properties of mango butter

Mango butter has soothing and emollient properties, strong antioxidant power, and an anti-inflammatory action.

For the skin

• Ultra-nourishing: rich in fatty acids, it restores the hydrolipidic film and fights against dryness.
• Softening: restores elasticity and comfort to the skin, ideal for dry, sensitive, and atopic areas.
• Protective: forms a natural veil that protects against external aggressions (cold, wind, pollution).
• Repairing: soothes redness, irritation, and feelings of tightness.
• Natural anti-aging: its content of antioxidants (vitamins A, C, and E) helps prevent premature aging.

For hair

• Intensely nourishes the hair fiber, even the driest.
• Softens and smooths, without weighing the hair down.
• Protects against breakage and split ends.
• Adds shine and radiance, particularly to curly, wavy, and frizzy hair.

For babies

Thanks to this unique composition, mango butter:

• nourishes and protects the fragile skin of infants, even atopic skin,
• soothes dry or irritated areas such as diaper rash,
• envelops the skin in a natural protective barrier that baby needs,
• takes care of the fine and delicate hair of little ones.

Gentle and protective, mango butter is perfect for the fragile skin of infants. Its melting texture makes massages soft and soothing. On babies' fine hair, it provides suppleness and natural protection.
