How to use
Scoop a small amount and warm between your palms. Apply to skin; best used on slightly damp skin straight after a shower. A little goes a long way.
Storage
Store in a cool, dark place. Use within 12 months. Discard if the oil smells rancid.
Safety
Do not fully melt the Shea Butter before whipping; it will not whip correctly. No preservative needed; water-free formula. Soothe uses Bergamot FCF; safe for full-body daily application. Patch test before use. Keep out of reach of children.
