Frequently asked questions
What is murumuru butter?
Murumuru butter (INCI: Astrocaryum Murumuru Seed Butter) is the fat from the seeds of the murumuru palm of the Amazon. It is rich in lauric and myristic acids, which gives a firm butter that melts on contact with skin and leaves a smooth, non-greasy finish.
How does murumuru butter behave in formulations?
It is a pale, firm butter at room temperature that melts quickly on skin, similar in feel to cocoa or shea but lighter. It is cold pressed and refined for a mild odour, and is a popular choice for frizz control, solid hair bars and glossy lip products.
Where does it come from and is it food grade?
It comes from murumuru palm seeds of Brazilian origin. This grade is intended for cosmetic use and is not for food use.
What pack sizes are available?
From 1 kg up to a 25 kg pack, all priced online. For regular volumes, ask us for a bulk quote.
