This Ultra Refined Mango Butter is expeller pressed from the mango seed and further refined to remove any color or scent. It is soft but solid at room temperature, and slightly grainy in texture, but it melts on contact with the skin.
Common Uses: Mango Butter has been used by the indigenous people of the forest regions of southeast Asia for centuries. It is known to be rich in antioxidants and emollients as well as Vitamins A and E, and it can be used to soften and moisturize rough and dry skin. Its natural properties are useful for reducing the appearance of fine lines. Mango Butter is ideal in formulations for lotions, body butters, balms, soaps, shaving creams, hair care products and lip balms.
Mango butter is high in unsaponifiables and can develop crystal-like granules of fat due to storage temperature.
• In a double boiler, heat mango butter to 170-185▪F.
• Maintain this temperature for 15-20 minutes to ensure all fat crystals are completely melted.
• After 15-20 minutes allow rapid cooling.
When adding butter to creams and lotions, it might be necessary to gently warm them until the texture can be incorporated into the final product. Using a hand blender, create a vortex with your cream or lotion and drizzle your melted butter to fully incorporate. For addition in soaps, the general rule of thumb is 1 tablespoon per pound (15 g / 500 g). As with most raw materials, results may vary, so we strongly recommend small, lab-scale batches prior to any commercial manufacturing.
Shelf Life: Store in cool temperatures (below 25 °C) away from light and moisture in an air-tight container. The product will become liquid above ambient temperatures (e.g., 36 °C), but will re-solidify upon cooling without affecting functionality. This butter has a shelf-life of one year when stored properly.

Rating: J'adore ce beurre de mangue. J'en suis à mon 3e achat. Excellent dans les bougies à massage, ne laisse pas un aspect huileux.
I love this mango butter. I am on my 3rd purchase. Excellent in massage candles, does not leave an oily appearance.

Rating: This isn't the first time I've ordered this mango butter. I've used it in soap, body whips, lips balms, lotion bars and have used it raw, as a hair mask. It has virtually no odor. It melts beautifully. Its light, not greasy and is absorbed readily into hair and skin. I highly recommend this product.

Rating: The batch i recieved was terrible. The butter was melted down on low temperature twice and still feels like an exfoliant. I let it return to room temp, even whipped it off and on, still terrible. Im afraid to order more.
New Directions Aromatics Response:
Please note that our Mango Butter - Ultra Refined is high in unsaponifiables and can develop crystal-like granules of fat due to low storage temperature.
In order to attain a smooth texture, please heat the mango butter in a double boiler at 170-185▪F. Maintain this temperature for about 15-20 minutes to ensure that fat granules have completely melted. Once completely melted, allow rapid cooling. This process would give you a smooth and even texture desired for your formulation.
Rating: Very happy with the packaging of this product, it keeps my butter nice and solid even in the summer heat. The mango butter is amazing , great product for body and hair care products. Thank you New Directions Aroma !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rating: I have made hundreds of body butters using this mango butter. It was wonderfully silky. But the last two batches have resulted in the graininess described by others below. I have not changed anything in my recipe or technique ... and all the inputs come from New Directions. A call to customer service was unhelpful. No advice at all. Meanwhile I am losing hundreds of dollars worth of product! This is unacceptable... and surprising. I was previously a very happy NDA customer.
Rating: I love the texture Mango Butter imparts on my creams and butters. I really wish there was an Organic option for it tho.

Seems to make my face ... well transformed into really beautiful skin. People have asked me what I have been using, they can't believe the change. THANKS FOR THIS AMAZING PRODUCT.

Rating: I love love this Mango butter, I have used it on it's own and in whipped and blended body butters It is smooth and luxurious. It absorbs well and leaves your skin feeling ultra hydrated. I will definitely continue using this in my body butters.

Rating: EXTREMELY grainy. Have tried heating and cooling at various temperatures, but nothing has worked thus far. I purchased 1kg of this, and will not be able to use any of it.

Rating: Extremely grainy. Maybe because it's ultra refined? Will try to melt and freeze to improve the texture. Would also prefer unrefined mango butter option.
Rating: Really like mango butter and it's properties for my products. The price is great but would prefer a less refined version.

Rating: This is a really nice butter. It takes a little bit to absorb or massage into the skin, but it's rich, and doesn't feel greasy. I wish the smell was a little less pronounced though.

Rating: great butter, not to oily and a great texture! the only thing is that it doesn't smell great.
By:Jennifer, Fort St. John, British Columbia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 02-Nov-2013
Rating: This is, by far, the best mango butter I've ever used! It's so soft, and I love that it comes packaged in a container instead of a bag (like the other companies I used to order from) I use it in CP and HP soaps and also in certain bath bomb recipes. It's great!
By:Dina, Welland, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 10-Jan-2012
Rating: A wonderful butter! Made some fantastic lip balms with this butter (I personally like it better than shea, feels smoother and lasts longer). I will be repurchasing, along with other fancy butters.
Rating: Perfect to improve body butter: I mix it with NDA Body Butter (melted) and Orange Blend Butter. It's wonderfull moisturizing dry feet. I also use it in CP soap.
Rating: I think this butter is great for fine lines and wrinkles. Combined with cocoa butter and shea butter I made a great whipped body butter and have gotten great feedback from everyone I have given it to. It has a very smooth non greasy texture.

Rating: This is a really soft butter that has a relatively low melting point. It's great in soaps! You can use it in anything and it practically has no smell. A very versitile butter, and I was very pleased to work with it.

Rating: I love this butter! it is very moisturizing, i noticed the difference after the first week of using it!!
By:Mariam, Hampton, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 14-May-2012
Rating: My favourite butter ever! I can't begin to explain how much I love, love, love this butter! It melts in your hands, and doesn't leave a greasy residue at all. It has no distinctive scent so you can pretty much add any fragrance to it and it makes my skin so uber soft and silky. I immediately noticed a difference when I ran out of it. I love this butter!

Rating: Mango butter is so rich! I like to combine it with others like shea and pumpkin seed. Add a little orange and peppermint EO and you got yourself a very uplifting butter for your feet!

Rating: We were hoping this butter would aid creating a denser vegan lip balm - however it did not - Still a great butter to add to balms and soaps!

Rating: This is another amazing butter i used in my set of hair butters, and it really nice. Very moisturizing, and it worked even better having been combined with shea and almond butter, for my triple moisture butter. Would deffinitely get this again.

Rating: I am a massage therapist, one day a client (construction worker) came in with back pain but neglected to mention his RED sunburn from the day before. All I had available at the time was this Mango Butter. I slathered it all over his back & proceeded to use the slick from the butter to massage him. I treated his fiance 2 days later & she said his back looked normal already (& felt great too!!) I plan on making an after-sun blend based on this butter. It feels amazing & works great too!! Thanks NDA!

By:Louise, Montreal, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 25-Feb-2006
Rating: This is by far the best price for mango butter that I've found. I use it in my CP soaps. A little goes a long way. I will be buying lots more! Thanks NDA for another superior product!
By:Shannon, Comox, British Columbia
Date: Loyal Customer Since: 29-Mar-2009
Rating: I used this in whipped body butter and it feels wonderful on the skin, it doesn't have a strong scent so when you add scent you only have to add a little. I will keep buying this for a long time and it's such a good price. I've bought 8 butters I think so I'll review them all as i use them but so far the ones I have used are superb quality.
Rating: Wonderful butter! No fragrance at all and great to use on its own. I love the choice of having refined, unscented butters at NDA.
