What is a body butter and how does it compare to a body cream or lotion?
Body butters typically consist of a combination of butters and oils, which gives them a thicker, more solid consistency compared to body creams or lotions. The absence of water in body butters allows for a more concentrated formula, providing intense hydration and nourishment to the skin. When applied, body butters remain solid at room temperature but melt upon contact with body heat, making them easier to spread and allowing for deep moisturization. This luxurious texture and lasting hydration make body butters a popular choice for those with dry or dehydrated skin, especially during colder months or in drier climates.
How do I use the body butters?
For the best results, use on damp skin after a shower or bath to help lock in moisture on your skin. Simple scoop out some product, melt it between your hands, and apply to your skin. Feel free to use your butters any time you need extra moisture on your skin!
Do your body butters contain any allergens?
While our products are formulated with natural ingredients, and were crafted for sensitive skin, it's essential to review the ingredients list if you have specific allergies. Some individuals may be sensitive to certain essential oils or nut-derived ingredients.
Can I use your body butters on sensitive skin?
Our body butters are generally suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin. However, we always recommend doing a patch test before applying to a larger area, especially if you have known sensitivities.
What is your return/refund policy?
Due to the nature of most products being handmade, and to maintain health qualities, there will be no returns/refunds for any body butter products. If you received an incorrect or damaged product, please reach out to us at info@beyondbenito.com so we can make it right!
What happens if my product arrives melted?
This is perfectly normal during warmer temperatures during shipping, especially in the spring and summer months. While we take precautions to minimize melting during transit, it can still occur occasionally.
If you find your product melted upon arrival, simply place it in the fridge to re-harden. Although it may appear that some volume is lost due to the change in texture, rest assured that the product and ingredients are still the same and it is still usable and effective. Once cooled, the texture may become denser, but it will still provide the same nourishing benefits for your skin.

How should I store my body butter to maintain its quality?
Proper storage is key to preserving the freshness and effectiveness of your body butter. We recommend storing it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to avoid melting.
