How Mango Butter is Made

Let's start with the types of butter: refined and unrefined. Unrefined butter is its rawest form, and it can help make soaps more moisturizing and conditioning.

The refined version goes through a filtering and treatment process. It is first filtered and then treated with chemical solvents. The product is often scented, colored, has added vitamins, or has other additives.

Let’s look at how mango butter is made. First, the mango is harvested, and the pit is removed. Once removed, the mangoes are dried out for an extended period. Then, the stone is extracted from the pit by expeller pressing or cold pressing the kernels removed from the dried mango stones. The oil content is only about 10-12%, so typically, the stones have to go through the process twice to get all the oil out.
