Chamomile & Calendula

Whipped body butter

The balm infusion, whipped.

$3850 g

The same calendula infusion that goes into the balm, made with jojoba instead of sunflower, then whipped into shea and mango butter with roman chamomile over the top.

Soft, faintly apple sweet, and the closest thing in the range to a blanket.

The formula

  • Shea butter Butyrospermum parkii

    Unrefined, melting just under body temperature. It carries the structure of every butter we whip.

  • Mango butter Mangifera indica

    Firmer than shea and almost odourless, which lets the unscented butter stay genuinely unscented.

  • Fractionated coconut Cocos nucifera

    The liquid fraction only. It keeps a whipped butter from setting hard in an Australian winter.

  • Calendula Calendula officinalis

    Dried petals steeped in sunflower oil for three to four weeks, then strained through muslin. Dried only, because water grows mould.

  • Jojoba Simmondsia chinensis

    A liquid wax rather than an oil, which is why it sits so quietly on skin and keeps for years.

  • Squalane Squalane

    Olive derived and fully saturated, so it will not go rancid on your shelf. It is what makes an oil sink instead of sit.

  • Arrowroot Maranta arundinacea

    A pinch of starch. It is the difference between a butter that feels greasy and one that feels finished.

  • Vitamin E Tocopherol

    An antioxidant for the oils. It is not a preservative and we never treat it as one.

  • Roman chamomile Chamaemelum nobile

    Soft, apple sweet, and in the daisy family, so patch test if ragweed bothers you.

How to use it

Massage a small amount into skin as often as needed.

Keeps for

12 months once opened. Anhydrous, so it carries no preservative. Scoop with dry fingers.

Before you use it

Contains natural essential oils. Calendula and chamomile are in the daisy family, so patch test if ragweed bothers you.
