It has been a staple in the personal care industry due to its rich content of fatty acids and non-triglyceride components that delivering emollience and smoothing benefits to cosmetic formulations. Apart from blooming and crystallization, the use of this plant-based butter also comes with vulnerability to oxidation and rancidity.
