More options of use:

• How to use Nativilis Amazonian Cocoa Butter Raw on your skin: When you use cocoa butter on its own (the butter is used as an ingredient in some skincare products), it’s also most effective when used on slightly damp skin post-showering. Melt a small amount in your hands (1 to 3 teaspoons) and apply all over the body, paying particular attention to dry areas like elbows, knees and heels.
• How to use Nativilis Amazonian Cocoa Butter Raw on your hair: Thanks to the growing popularity of this butter, you can find Cocoa butter in copious haircare products on the market. However, the key is getting a natural formula that’s void of chemicals and fillers. Otherwise, what’s the point of using such a wonderful virgin and deodorized ingredient? Here are a couple of alternatives.
• Hair Basic One option is to simply purchase a glass jar of Nativilis Amazonian Cocoa Butter Raw and apply it to your tresses in lieu of your regular conditioner after shampooing. You only need a small amount (1 teaspoon a bit more or less depending on the length of your hair) to do the trick, just make sure your mane is damp—not soaking wet—so it can absorb properly. Providing you didn’t use too much product, you can keep it on as a leave-in conditioner treatment. You can even opt to sleep with a towel on your head and rinse out in the morning.
• Hair Intense While Nativilis Amazonian Cocoa Butter Raw Unscented Fragrance Free can certainly stand up on its own, mixing it with other oils and butters can be beneficial for those with extremely damaged, thirsty locks. Again, if your hair is super-fine, you’re going to want to opt for the basic route as to not weigh it down.

Cocoa butter has fantastic moisturising qualities as it is rich in essential fatty acids that nourish and protect the skin.

The butter is able to deliver deep, lasting hydration that doesn’t feel greasy or sticky, helping to keep your skin in its natural healthy balance.

This butter is one of the most stable fats known and has a reputation for being an excellent soothing ingredient for those with sensitive skin.

Cocoa butter is very well tolerated by most skin types as it is extremely non-reactive.

People with dry skin also need products that deliver lots of moisture to keep skin supple. Cocoa butter, with its intensive hydration properties, may be used to give skin a non-irritating moisture boost.

Not only do the naturally occurring antioxidants in Cocoa butter keep the product fresher for longer, they also help to fight free radicals that can have a damaging effect on the skin.

When environmental factors such as traffic pollution and cigarette smoke make contact with the skin they can spawn free radicals which are known to cause premature ageing of the skin. Antioxidants are proven to help protect the skin from free radical damage and help to keep your skin looking youthful and healthy.

When it comes to selecting a Cocoa butter skin care product for you and your family, we believe that it’s vitally important to consider how the ingredients are sourced.

Many high street personal care products that contain Cocoa butter are also loaded with chemical nasties such as parabens, mineral oils and drying alcohol.

This means that although the Cocoa butter may offer some moisturising properties to these products, its benefits may be cancelled out by the cocktail of harsh, drying chemicals.

ECOLOGY

The rainforest is still destroyed for short term profits – for unsustainable timber exploration and slash-and--burn activities for low valuable cash cropping and cattle farming. A highly promising alternative is the purchase of non-timber products such as seeds and fruits.

The collection of the seeds are carried out with the involvement of the local forest communities cultivating partnerships driven by fairness, transparency, respect, and ethics. Thus we can assure that the sourcing practices are in strict compliance with the respect of traditional knowledge, for the environment.

Nativilis advocates the preservation of the Amazonian Rainforest by promoting the use and creating consumer markets for these sustainable and renewable rainforest resources, which contribute to poverty alleviation and local development.

The Amazon Rainforest is known for being one of the most biodiverse areas on the planet. Its natural wealth, however, goes far beyond the animals that roam the land and river. When you travel to the jungle, you’ll see that the Amazon is home to rare and powerful plants that have been used by ancient civilizations (and are still being used today) for their powerful medicinal and health properties.

Health Properties of Cacao

Raw cacao can be easily incorporated into any diet for an extra boost of antioxidants. In its purest form, it is an antioxidant powerhouse containing 40x the antioxidants of blueberries. By adding raw cacao to your morning smoothie, oatmeal, or cereal, you can benefit from its natural energetic properties, giving you a spike in mental alertness and focus. What you may not know is that Cacao is also very high in calcium and is the highest plant-based source of iron. It’s full of magnesium for a healthy heart and brain. Additionally, the oil from the seeds (more commonly known as cocoa butter), is used as a laxative and turned into lotions to treat mild skin conditions.

Natural products have been used medicinally for thousands of years and when used appropriately pose little risk. They are obtained from plants and, when processed correctly, contain potent chemical compounds each with their own proven therapeutic properties. Not all products are suitable however for use in aromatherapy, some can cause sensitisation and irritation and should not be applied to the skin. Whilst they are a natural product - if unadulterated - they are also very potent and it is vitally important that they are handled with the relevant knowledge to ensure their effective, safe use.

Please observe the following basic principles:

• Oral ingestion of natural oils/butters is not advocated. Certain oils are toxic when ingested, so under no circumstances should anyone take natural oils orally without a prescription from an appropriately qualified medical practitioner. Natural oils need to be treated with the same respect as conventional medicines.
• Keep natural oils out of the reach of children
• Avoid UV exposure with citrus oils as they are photo sensitive
• Avoid essential oils coming into contact with the eyes and mucous membranes.
• Keep essential oils away from direct sunlight.
• Always seek the advice of a professional aromatherapist.

The number of drops of essential oil used in a blend is a major factor to safe use. Generally dilutions range from 0.5 to 5% dilution. Chronic conditions generally require more diluted doses compared to acute situations. Special consideration is required for children, the elderly, terminally ill patients, during pregnancy and lactation and when attempting to conceive, epileptics, clients on medication should always seek professional advice before using any essential oils. A 2% essential oil dilution is generally regarded as a safe guideline for dermal application on healthy adults.

Some essential oils and methods of application may be contraindicated in some medical conditions and illnesses and during on-going medical treatments. Professional advice is required when using essential oils in combination with medications. Babies, children, teenagers, pregnant and lactating women, palliative clients in particular require a gentle approach and should always seek professional advice.

Always contact a professional aromatherapist who will guide you on the oils that are suitable for your individual needs.

Any reactions or adverse effects you may have experienced using natural oils should be referred to either your GP practice.
