Kokum butter is derived from the Garcinia indica fruit and is valued for its rich fatty acid content and lightweight feel on the skin. It helps strengthen the skin barrier and reduce moisture loss while remaining comfortable for regular use.
Unlike heavier occlusive butters, kokum absorbs steadily and supports softness without leaving the skin overly coated. It is particularly useful in formulations designed to nourish while maintaining a breathable finish.
Its benefits are gradual and supportive, centred around resilience and comfort.
