cocoa butter softens and lubricates the skin. This yellowish vegetable fat is solid at room temperature but liquefies at temperatures between 90o–100oF (32.2o–37.8oC). Thus, it is frequently used in lip balms and massage creams because of its favorable melting point (i.e., close to body temperature). Cocoa butter is considered comedogenic and may cause allergic reactions.
