Body Butter | Energizing Citruese

A crisp citrus blend of sweet orange (energizing), pink grapefruit (stimulating) and lemon verbena essential oils paired with notes of cedarwood. This blend is crisp and clean. It is citrusy, but not too bitter or lemon-like, and has a green backdrop that is slightly masculine but not metallic. Citruese was created for the early riser who has their day planned and wants to smell ready for it. Our Citruese blend comes in our hero body butter, ultra hydrating body lotion, body salt scrub and roll-on body oil.

"In my other world, I’ve worked as a New York City real estate broker for a consulting firm of newly constructed condominiums. I created this blend with the development process in mind. The meticulous selection of marbles, fiber, metals, porcelain and wood finishings along with careful review of the architect's floor plans is one that takes laser focus and concentration. " - Keba

What are the Best Practices for longer shelf life?

This product may melt in extreme heat, 90+ degree temperature. We recommend refrigeration before use during very hot summer months if you do not use air conditioning. In addition, sometimes if an all natural product is placed in two different extreme environments (hot or cold) causing it to melt then harden again, the fatty acids and/or flower wax component may harden faster than the rest of the contents creating a grainy-like texture. To fix carefully melt to liquify contents, cool and place in the refrigerator. The butter will return to its original smooth buttery texture.

All essential oil and phthalate free fragrance formulation is diluted and pre-blended in plant based oil (MCT coconut/palm oils) by aromatherapeutic guidelines.
