Question

I am looking for odorless oils or butters to add to a cream formulation. I want the cream to provide softness and moisture, and also help reduce stretch marks. What do you recommend?

Answer

Based on your inquiry about odorless oils or butters for softness, moisture, and reducing stretch marks to be mixed into cream, the staff recommends two popular options:

  • Cocoa Butter: This is particularly popular for formulations aimed at reducing stretch marks. An odorless version is available.
  • Shea Butter: This is widely used for general skin recovery, moisturizing, and strengthening, especially for sensitive or dry skin.

Both butters provide excellent softness and moisture. While Cocoa Butter is highlighted for stretch marks, Shea Butter is versatile and comes in various forms (like Light Oil, Ultra-Soft, and Refined) which makes it easy to incorporate into cream formulations.

Both are great choices depending on your specific needs, offering the benefits you are looking for.
