100% Pure Cocoa Butter on the face?

I have normal skin, not oily, never have breakouts, sometimes abit dry if i dont moisturise..





coz ive got like 30g of pure solid cocoa butter buttons (they look just like white choc buttons!)


my nan randomly gave me so far i put a few in my bath, made lipbalms out of them mixed with beeswax %26amp; almond oil %26amp; vitamin e oil, rubbed them on my knees %26amp; elbows etc. but was wondering





if i used cleanser %26amp; toner like normal then gently rubbed a button on my face (they melt really quickly an silkily on contact with your skin)


what could pure cocoa butter do for my face?100% Pure Cocoa Butter on the face?
I would be cautious about it clogging your pores, but you know your own skin better than anyone else. You are really lucky. The benefits of cocoa butter on your face is that it gives you a nice even complexion and makes your skin glow. Be careful about your face become too greasy but if your skin can tolerate it, it is the best thing for it!100% Pure Cocoa Butter on the face?
i wouldn't put this product on your face as it can cause skin to break out and be oily. Cocoa butter is mainly used for dry skin and it should be applied to the body cause it is a heavy cream. On the face you should use a moisturiser daily but not a body one. I would take some time to go to the shops and maybe ask a beauty consultant about a good moisturiser for your skin type.


Good luck

I would be careful with anything that you apply to your face.


Personally, I wouldn't. Coco butter seems a bit to heavy for the face. Best only to buy creams and washes which are specifically meant your face.





You seem young also! Best to keep your skin all healthy ready for when you grow old, and wrinkly :P
dont put it on your face
Hey there,





I can answer this from just personal experience...I've always suffered with bad acne breakouts, my skin would be clear for awhile and then I'd just get a terrible breakout. I used to use 100% pure cocoa butter on my face and I found out that it was making my skin too oily, which was causing it to break out. My dermatologist also didn't recommend putting it on my face.





Now, that could have just been my personal face and body reacting to that, so everyone could be different.





You could look into more organic products, like organic face products. That way you know it will be okay to use on your face since it's made for your face and not your body.





Here are some organic face product sites:
