Directions

Gently melt the butter if needed and incorporate it into your cold process soap or personal care formula at the desired usage rate, blending thoroughly to ensure even distribution. Add to oils in CP soap before lye is introduced, or stir into lotions, balms, and creams during the oil phase. Always test your final formulation, as different butters can affect texture, hardness, and performance.

Warning

For external cosmetic use only. Not for ingestion. Avoid eyes. Discontinue if irritation occurs. Keep out of reach of children. Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.

Reviews

Great stuff I add it

"Great stuff I add it in my hair products."

— Kerry-Ann M. (5/5)

Creamy addition to body butter recipe

"Love that it is supposed to assist aging skin. I used the Horsetail butter blend today in a shea/mango/kokum butter at a rate of 1:4. I also added tapioca starch, apricot kernel oil, and FO. I tempered the harder butters and added the Horsetail blend after tempering was finished. Blending worked like a dream and everything incorporated well. The end result was a tad too oily for my liking, although the butter does absorb quickly, so I either will increase the tapioca starch - I kept that on the light side for this first attempt with the butter blend - or use Slick Fix next time. Overall, I am extremely happy with the product. It has no strong odor and it is smooth and creamy with no graininess to it at all."

Cannot live without this butter!

"I love this butter! I use it just as is on my feet and hands. I get very dry cracked feet and nothing seems to work for very long, horsetail butter is amazing! I cannot wait to see what it does for my feet in flip flop weather!"

— Jerri (5/5)

Horsetail Butter Blend

"I love with this product. The scent is very light, like the herb itself. It is a good price for the amount I received. Well packaged and easy to use straight from the jar. I have a German Shepherd puppy who already looks like and has the strength of an adult dog. I am sometimes Wiley E Coyote to her Roadrunner. I find that it seems to help with the inflammation from some of our more adventurous walks. I am going to try it in soap or shampoo bars, to see if the benefits transfer well. It does feel a little greasy when I apply it, but absorbs well into my skin without leaving a greasy residue. I will continue ordering it."

My Secret Weapon

"Horsetail butter is amazing and my secret weapon in my products since my market is geared toward mature skin users. I only wish WSP would carry the actual Horsetail extract oil individually verses in a butter."

— Jae (5/5)

Q&A

Can you use this in face moisturizers?: Yes, Horsetail Butter Blend may be used in facial moisturizers.
There is no Horsetail butter blend in the lye calculator. And you say that there is a mix of oils in this blend.My question is : for CP recipe - under what name is the Horsetail butter blend in the lye calculator so that I can select correctly?: Horsetail Butter has a SAP value of .132 to .186 You could use Avocado Butter in the calculator as it has similiar SAP values.
Is this safe for lip products?: Yes, this can be used in lip care.
Would this be good for people with eczema?: We cannot make any health claims for any product we sell.
I use this in my beard balms and body butters. My sister in law is allergic to nuts. What would be the closest substitute for horsetail butter?: We would recommend looking at the ingredients for each butter. Butters like shea and mango are not blended with any other ingredients. Some butter blends are mixed with oils other than sweet almond oil which should be safe for people who have nut allergies.
