“Mango seed butter is rich in mangiferin, vitamins E and C, all of which have antioxidant properties,” board-certified dermatologist Hadley King, M.D., FAAD, tells mbg about the ingredient nutrient profile.
Mango seed butter is also excellent for hydration as it’s rich in essential fatty acids, which give the rich product its emollient and occlusive properties. It’s most famously used in thick, comforting body creams and moisturizers for this reason.
So if you’re looking for an all-star hydrator that can help firm skin and support collagen production, mindbodygreen’s body cream is made with mango seed butter, as well as organic aloe vera, shea butter, squalane, cocoa butter, and an extra dose of vitamin E. Together this blend helps support skin hydration, fight free radical damage, and help improve the texture and tone.
