Original Waterless Balm Butter

$20.00
size

HODY Balm Butter is a waterless, plant-based body butter for face and body. Lighter than a typical body butter, this smooth, smearable balm glides on and melts into skin without a heavy, greasy feel.

Made with more oils than butters, it blends Jojoba, Rosehip seed, and castor oils with Shea and Mango seed butters, plus Candelilla wax, a vegan alternative to beeswax, for structure. Whatever your skin doesn't absorb, Arrowroot takes care of excess oil.

Ideal as a head-to-toe moisturizer for dry skin. Rich enough for your body, gentle enough for your face.

This anhydrous formula contains no water, so it needs no emulsifiers or fillers and no added preservatives. Rosemary leaf extract and vitamin E help protect the oils. Lightly scented with lavender, frankincense, and tea tree.

A little goes a long way: for best results, dry your clean hands, but apply to damp skin.

Available in 50g and 100g jars.

Head-to-toe moisture, simplified. Plant-based, waterless.

 

KEY BENEFITS

  • Deep, lasting moisture - shea, mango, and jojoba are rich in nourishing fatty acids that help skin hold onto hydration.

  • Seals in moisture - castor oil's occlusive texture forms a protective layer that helps slow water loss.

  • Fast-absorbing, non-greasy finish - jojoba and rosehip oil are lightweight "dry oils" that sink in without residue.

  • Whipped, velvety texture - arrowroot powder and candelilla wax combine for a silky, absorbent glide with real structure and hold.

  • Naturally vitamin-rich - contains vitamins A, C, and E across the blend for everyday nourishment.

  • Antioxidant-rich formula - vitamin E, rosehip oil, and rosemary extract all contribute natural antioxidants.

  • A calming, aromatic ritual - lavender, frankincense, and tea tree combine for a warm, grounding, purifying scent experience.

Our signature formula contains only the plant-based ingredients.

No preservatives? Is it safe? How long will it last?

Yes. Because there is no water in the formula, there is nothing for bacteria to grow in, so no preservative is needed. Because it's made in small batches, it's not sitting on a shelf for months before it reaches you. The amber glass jar also acts as a freshness defense by blocking UV light. Use clean and dry hands every time to keep it pure, store in a cool dry place, and once opened, use within 12 months.

Is it greasy?

Nope.!It is rich but absorbs into a velvety, non-greasy finish, thanks to arrowroot, rosehip, and jojoba balancing the heavier butters. A little goes a long way.

Can I use it on my face?

Balm Butter is made for head-to-toe application. The scented versions use essential oils, but don't worry; the amount is considered safe for the face.

The formula is very concentrated, use less than you would other moisturizers. Less is more!

As with anything new, patch test first if your skin is sensitive.

Ingredients - INCI

Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax, Maranta Arundinacea Root (Arrowroot) Powder, Rosa Canina (Rosehip) Seed Oil, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract. 

Original Scent includes: Boswellia Carterii (Frankincense) Oil, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil,  Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil

DOESNT Contain

No Synthetic Preservatives. The formula is water-free, so there's nothing for microbes to grow in; rosemary extract (ROE) and vitamin E protect the oils naturally instead.

No Parabens. A category of synthetic preservatives; not used or needed here.

No Phthalates. Commonly hidden inside synthetic "fragrance" blends; your scent comes from real essential oils (frankincense, lavender, tea tree), not a fragrance-oil blend.

No Synthetic Fragrance. What smells good here is the essential oils themselves.

No Fillers. Every ingredient earns its place (moisture, structure, or scent); nothing's in there just to bulk up the jar.

No Emulsifiers. This isn't a water-based lotion, so there's no water phase to emulsify in the first place.

No Silicones. No dimethicone or similar; the silky finish comes from the oils and waxes themselves.

No Mineral Oil or Petrolatum. Moisture comes entirely from plant oils and butters (jojoba, mango, shea, rosehip, castor).

No Synthetic Dyes. Nothing artificially colored.

No Talc. Arrowroot powder does the job talc usually does - absorbing excess oil, smoothing texture.

How To Use

Using clean, dry hands or a spatula, warm a small amount between your fingertips and massage gently into skin.

For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue if irritation occurs.
