Sweet Almond Butter – Unrefined / Virgin Source Oil
RidhSa Lipids Sweet Almond Butter – Unrefined / Virgin Source Oil is a derived cosmetic butter made using virgin sweet almond oil from Prunus dulcis and a declared structuring lipid system. Virgin oil is generally mechanically extracted with minimal refining, while the finished butter’s semi-solid texture comes from the additional structuring ingredients or a verified processing technology. It is not inherently a single-ingredient, naturally extracted almond butter. This grade may retain a more characteristic natural colour and aroma than a refined-source version, depending on formulation. It is designed for emollient balms, body butters, solid moisturizers and hair-care applications. Confirm the source-oil percentage, full INCI, allergen assessment, origin and batch melting specifications before finalizing marketing or regulatory documents.
