Murumuru virgin vegetable butter (Astrocaryum murumuru) - HBV Butters

Murumuru, virgin vegetable butter – HBV Oils and Butters

Raw and nourishing Amazonian butter for intensive hair and skin care

Virgin Murumuru Butter HBV is mechanically extracted from the seeds of the Astrocaryum murumuru , a palm tree native to the Amazon basin. This rare, unrefined butter is distinguished by its richness in lauric acid and natural restorative agents. Its solid texture at room temperature melts perfectly on contact with the skin and hair.

Protective, nourishing, and anti-dehydration, it forms a natural barrier that restores the hydrolipidic film. Widely used in hair care, it coats, disciplines, and restores shine and suppleness to dry or curly hair. It is also suitable for very dry, mature, or skin exposed to extreme conditions.

Its scent is sweet, slightly earthy and vegetal, and its color varies from ivory white to pale yellow depending on the harvest.
