Coco Butter for dark under eye circles or mango butter to smooth out wrinkles; which should you use?

Have you tried mango butter on your skin to smooth out wrinkles or a coco butter stick to get rid of dark circles or blemishes on your face? Before I even knew about it, coco butter was my everyday skin cream, basically a stable in my household. It's hydrating and moisturizing benefits come from being high in fatty acids. 

Coco butter cleared dark circles under my eyes as well as skin blemishes I've had in the past that didn't come back. It's hypoallergenic so I've regularly recommended it  often to my clients at the Salon who had similar eye concerns.. It's not the type of product that works instantly, but consistency will give you the best results and I've seen it work wonders for many years. 

Coco Butter is a type of vegetable fat derived from the cocoa bean. It's used in a lot of things such as chocolate to soaps to lotion and creams. I love it because it's high in antioxidants , it helps protect your skin from environmental damages, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

What surprised me is I had never heard of mango butter before moving to the west coast. I found an organic market that sells everything derived from plants in it's most natural form about 10 years ago and learned the origins were from India and Africa. 

The butter is made from the mango tree which is native to tropical regions like India. It's been used for centuries as a natural healer for hair and skin.  Like coco butter, it's widely used in cosmetics, cooking, soaps and reduces wrinkles in addition to giving the skin a healthy glow. 

Both can be blended with natural oils such as coconut, jojoba, apricot , avocado or olive oil, etc., or even adding couple of drops of essential oils is an excellent way to smell good all day.  Trust me, I know. Also,  you can met them down and put small amounts in a jar. I find that this works better in summer when the temps are warmer then in the winter. 

 Both can be used daily just make sure you're using them on clean skin before rubbing it in, they're saturating so you don't want to take the funk with you. lol.. I'm sure no one that who reads my post would ever do something like that, I just had to mention it anyway. 

If you haven't used either one in pure raw form without any preservatives and other stuff you can't pronounce, give them a try.  The benefits are worth it.
