"I'd like to make a lip balm using this as an ingredient. Can this be substituted for shea butter or would it make the lip balm too soft?"

Staff Answer You would need to make a test batch. You may need to adjust the wax in your recipe if the lip balm is too soft.

I know this is waaay late, but answering for anyone who has this question. I used this in a lip balm in replacement of shea butter and had no complications with the batch. I would say its just a tad softer then shea, but is also very smooth. In my batch shea was the smallest butter amount I used. If your lip balm is mostly shea, you might get different results than I did. Always do a test batch first, but if you only use a bit of shea, its a great substitute.

Staff Answer This is pretty creamy, so we'd say its most similar to the Aloe Butter Blend. But they are all pretty similar.

"I know that the formula is proprietary for the vegetable oil blend, but is there any chance you know if it contains any coconut or olive oil, or derivatives from coconut and olive oil? I have multiple friends with skin allergies to coconut and olive oil, so I'd like to know if it contains either of them before giving products with this in them to my friends with skin allergies. More specifically, body butters and lotions made with emulsifying wax."

Staff Answer We do not recommend adding a butter to a MP soap base. This will cut down on the lather the soap will create. We do offer a coffee MP soap base: https://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/products/premium-coffee-house-soap-2-lb-tray.aspx

Staff Answer You can combine this with almond butter, aloe, shea, coconut, etc. This will blend nicely with all butters but we would stay away from strong-scented butters such as hemp, cranberry, cocoa, lemon or lime.

Staff Answer We always recommend using an anti-oxidant such as vitamin E but if there may be possible water contamination from using in the bath or shower, we would recommend adding a preservative.

"I read the questions below and I too have a question about the coffee butter. I want to make a smaller batch to test first but don't want to make a 40oz loaf. The lye calculator does not have this blend. Is there anyway of breaking this down in size if you don't want to make a full loaf as listed? If so, please provide recommendations. Thanks - I guess I could just half the entire recipe as an option. "

Staff Answer Coffee Oil is one of two ingredients that make up this product. It is listed first and although we cannot give you an exact percentage because the blend is proprietary, you can be sure that it is over 50% of the product.

"Is this considered all natural?"

Click Here To View 1 answer(s)

Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer The average person considers this natural and processed. This butter consists of Coffea Arabica Seed Oil and Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil. Coffee Arabica Seed Oil is natural. Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil is processed. The vegetable oil itself is natural, but hydrogenation in simple terms means hydrogen atoms are added to the oil slightly altering its natural form.

Staff Answer Butter blends are usually softer because they are blended with sweet almond or hydrogenated vegetable oil.

Sort of like a whipped shortening. It will melt on skin contact, but is much thicker than an oil and is more of a solid at lower temps.

It was a harder butter to get out of the container it came in but whipped very nicely. Very nice on your skin.

"I'm playing around with the lye calculator to see about making a recipe with coffee butter in it. I dont see it listed as one of the ingredients. Can I substitute coffee bean oil instead into the calculator? If so, would this be the green oil?"

You should never use substitutions to get a result using the lye calculator. Oils and butters are not interchangeable in this case.

Yes, the coffee scent is quite pronounced in the coffee butter! Although great when you NEED a strong coffee scent.

It's a strong (but very nice, if you like the smell of coffee) coffee odor. I've used this butter in CP coffee kitchen soap, to which I also added coffee FO, coffee grounds and brewed coffee made with distilled water (lye/water mixture). It's a very nice butter that I'm trying to work in to additional formulations.
