Bacuri butter is very popular in the north of Brazil, it comes from the seeds of a beloved local fruit with a rich pulp, smell and taste (I could taste it in my mouth for hours).
Being a very dark butter with intense scent, it sometimes is received with some resistance by my costumers, that is, before they completely fall in love with it.
Bacuri butter has a high absorption rate, due to its high level of tripalmitin (50% to 55%), which penetrates the skin quickly. The high amount of fatty palmitoleic acid (5%), compared to other oils (less than or equal to 0.5 to 1.5%), makes the Bacuri butter a fantastic emollient, which can also be used as a moisturizing agent.
Bacuri is rich in Lysin and Methionine in northern Brazil it is used to alleviate insect bites, arthritis and rheumatism. Can be used to reduce the appearance of blemishes and reduce scarring.
