I love the fact that it doesn’t feel heavy on the skin especially during this heat wave and it’s still very moisturizing. I received mine completely melted but I know it’s because of the weather and I’m hoping it solidifies soon.
Response from Arami Essentials
Hi Damilola. Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your butter arrived melted. Unfortunately, hot weather can sometimes cause butters to soften during shipping. We recommend placing the butter in the fridge for a few minutes to allow it to re-solidify. We appreciate your understanding and hope you still enjoy the product.
For someone with extremely dry skin, the texture of the butter is exactly what I need, it’s seems a little heavy on the skin at first but after a little while it absorbs into my skin… though I use it after my glow oil and the combination is everything!!
I got the Rose and Vanilla Ivory Butter, and lemme just say I’m already obsessed ????. My skin has never felt so smooth
The ivory butter is so good and I love it!
What makes Glow Oil different from other body oils?
Most body oils require a trade-off. Some absorb quickly but don’t provide lasting moisture, while others feel rich but remain heavy on the skin. Glow Oil was designed to sit between both, delivering long-lasting moisture without heaviness or grease.
Is Glow Oil suitable for dry or ashy skin?
Yes. Glow Oil performs especially well on dry, ash-prone and stressed skin because shea oil helps support the skin barrier while improving softness and moisture retention over time.
Why apply Glow Oil onto damp skin?
Applying Glow Oil onto damp skin helps seal moisture into the body more effectively after showering. Damp skin also allows the oil to spread more evenly across the body and absorb more comfortably.
Does Glow Oil feel greasy?
No. Shea oil naturally combines richness with excellent spreadability, allowing Glow Oil to absorb quickly while continuing to leave skin soft and moisturised long after application.
Can I use Glow Oil with Ivory Butter?
Yes. Glow Oil and Ivory Butter play different roles within the routine. Glow Oil helps seal moisture into the skin after showering, while Ivory Butter provides richer moisture and longer-lasting protection against dryness
Can I use Glow Oil on my hair?
Yes. Glow Oil can be worked through the lengths and ends of the hair to help maintain softness and reduce dryness without weighing it down.
Can Glow Oil help improve uneven skin tone?
With consistent use, Glow Oil helps support softer, smoother and more even-looking skin. By strengthening the skin barrier and maintaining moisture levels, it helps skin appear healthier and more balanced over time.
Is Glow Oil suitable for eczema-prone or inflamed skin?
Glow Oil is especially well suited to skin prone to dryness, barrier disruption and moisture loss because shea oil naturally contains compounds known for their soothing and barrier-supporting properties.
Can Glow Oil replace my body lotion?
For many people, yes. Glow Oil was designed to provide long-lasting moisture while remaining lightweight and fast-absorbing. Those with particularly dry skin may choose to layer Ivory Butter over areas that need richer moisture, such as the legs, elbows, knees, feet or hands.
How often should I use Glow Oil?
Glow Oil can be used daily and performs best when applied onto damp skin immediately after showering. Consistent use helps support softer, smoother and more elastic skin over time.
Will Glow Oil clog pores?
Glow Oil is made from 100% shea oil and was designed to absorb comfortably into the skin without feeling heavy or excessively greasy. While individual skin responses vary, most people find it suitable for daily use across the body and hair.
What skin types is Glow Oil best for?
Glow Oil is suitable for all skin types but performs especially well on dry, ash-prone and climate-stressed skin. Its naturally rich blend of fatty acids and bioactive compounds helps support the skin barrier, maintain moisture and improve softness over time.
Is Glow Oil suitable during pregnancy?
Yes. Glow Oil contains a single ingredient, 100% shea oil, and is suitable for use during pregnancy. Consistent use helps maintain skin softness, moisture and elasticity as the skin stretches and changes over time.
Can Glow Oil be used on babies and children?
Yes. The Unscented version can be used on babies and children to help maintain skin softness and moisture. As with any skincare product, we recommend patch testing before first use.
Is Glow Oil suitable for postpartum skin?
Yes. Glow Oil is particularly well suited to postpartum skin, which can often feel drier, tighter and less elastic. Its naturally rich blend of fatty acids helps support the skin barrier while maintaining softness and moisture over time.
