Is it suitable for sensitive skin, and are there any precautions?

The product can be used on normal, dry and rough skin, but if your skin is very sensitive or reactive, it is worth being a little careful, because the formula contains orange extract — and citrus ingredients, like any fragranced plant extracts, can occasionally irritate skin that reacts easily to cosmetics.

The standard way to check compatibility is a patch test: apply a small amount to a discreet area such as the inner forearm or the bend of the elbow, and observe the spot over the next 24 hours. If no redness, itching or discomfort appears, you can use the butter over larger areas of the body. If any irritation develops at any point, stop using the product.

A few further points to keep in mind:

• The product is for external use only — do not apply it near the eye area.
• Avoid applying it to broken or freshly irritated skin (for example, immediately after shaving nicks or on sunburnt areas), as any fragranced product can sting there.
• This is a cosmetic care product for softness and comfort; it is not intended to treat skin conditions, so persistent skin problems are a reason to see a dermatologist rather than rely on body care.
