Bless International Organic Raw Cocoa Butter — 100% Pure Unrefined Ivory, 1 lb / 450 g, Grade A Moisturizer for Skin & Hair

Organic Raw Cocoa Butter from Bless International is a 100% pure, unrefined Grade A moisturizer for face, body and hair.

This ivory, unrefined cocoa butter arrives in its natural state so you get a high-concentration fat that blends easily into DIY creams, balms, lotions and soaps. Cold-pressed and additive-free, it provides a dense, emollient base you can use alone or mix with oils, essential oils and botanical extracts. The texture melts on skin contact and helps reduce tightness and flaking without synthetic fragrances or stabilizers.

How does this cocoa butter hydrate dry skin?

The butter creates a protective, occlusive layer that locks in moisture while delivering fatty acids that help soften rough patches. Use it after bathing or on targeted areas like elbows and heels for best results.

• 100% organic, unrefined formula for full lipid content
• Melts at skin temperature for easy absorption
• Concentrated emollients that reduce water loss
• Free from additives, fragrances and preservatives

Can I use it on hair and scalp, and how?

Yes — apply sparingly to hair ends or warm a small amount and massage into the scalp as a pre-wash treatment. It helps smooth frizz and adds shine without silicones when rinsed out properly.

• Apply to ends to seal split tips and reduce breakage
• Use as a hot-oil or overnight pre-wash for the scalp
• Mix with lighter oils (jojoba, argan) for easier spread
• Works well in homemade conditioning bars and treatments

What makes Grade A unrefined cocoa butter different from processed varieties?

Grade A unrefined cocoa butter retains its natural color, aroma and full-spectrum fatty acids because it avoids deodorization and bleaching. That means a richer texture and more of the raw properties formulators and skincare fans prefer.

• Ivory/white color from minimal processing
• Distinct, mild cocoa scent instead of neutralized aroma
• Higher natural antioxidant and nutrient content
• Better for natural, preservative-free formulations

How do I incorporate it into DIY soaps and lotions?

The butter blends smoothly into melted bases and soap batches at controlled temperatures, improving hardness and creaminess. Start with small test batches to dial in ratios depending on desired firmness and spreadability.

• Use 5–30% of formulation for lotions and creams
• Add 10–25% in soap recipes for firmer bars and stable lather
• Melt gently over low heat to avoid overheating
• Combine with liquid oils to reduce tackiness in balms

Who is this for? If you make your own skincare, want a concentrated natural moisturizer for very dry areas, or need a stable, unrefined base for hair and body treatments, this Grade A organic cocoa butter is suited to makers and daily users alike. It’s ideal for DIY formulators, natural beauty enthusiasts and anyone seeking a simple, additive-free emollient to soften and maintain skin and hair health.
