Use
One common use of cocoa butter is to smooth scars, wrinkles, and other marks on the skin. Many women believe cocoa butter creams and lotions can be used during and after pregnancy to prevent and minimize the appearance of stretchmarks. Cocoa butter has also been promoted to heal rashes from conditions like eczema and dermatitis.
You can rub one of these cocoa butter products on your skin or lips every day as part of your skin care regimen.
