Key Ingredients
- Baobab Fruit Pulp Extract: Skin-conditioning agent that helps to increase the skin’s moisture levels to a supple, healthy-looking condition.
- Shea Butter: Helps soften the skin.
- Glycerin & Hydrogenated Coconut Oil: Moisturizing agents that help to soften and smooth the skin.

FAQ
Are baobab trees cut down to make Epoch Baobab Body Butter?
No. Epoch Baobab Body Butter features baobab fruit pulp extract, so the tree is unharmed. It is responsibly sourced from a women’s collective in Burkina Faso, so you can take care of your skin and a growing women’s community at the same time.
Can I use Baobab Body Butter on my face?
Epoch Baobab Body Butter is not designed to be used on your face—it is meant for use on the body only.
What makes baobab an ethnobotanical?
Ethnobotanicals are plants or herbs that are tied to a region and its people. Baobab falls into this group because of its unique place in African myths, legends, and ways of life. The trees are used for food, water, and even homes. Likewise, the fruit has been traditionally used for its health benefits. This versatile plant holds an important role in many African cultures.
