People are often looking for ideal products that effectively help the skin and hair. Despite the number of options available within today's market, not every type is as effective as companies claim, and some have harmful carcinogens, toxins and preservatives that actually age the skin. This is why many people are turning to natural products, such as the ever-popular cupuacu butter.

This extraordinary product is hitting the beauty industry by storm, often being labeled as one of the many super foods that can help provide a number of foods that people claim can do wonders for individuals suffering from a number of skin-related problems. Although many commonly compare it to cocoa butter, this special fruit has its own wondrous benefits.

Cupuacu comes from the South American rainforests, although it is also seen in the Amazon basin, Brazil, Peru, Columbia and Bolivia. It's largely produced throughout locations such as Acre, Amazonas, Rondonia and Para. The fruit comes from trees that can grow up to 50 feet tall, and sometimes even 65 feet tall in good conditions. The fruit is similar looking to a coconut, but oblong rather than round.

The interior of the fruit, or butter, is often compared to chocolate and pineapple in flavor. It's frequently used in desserts and various sweets, as well as mixed juices and smoothies. Many people take cupuacu as a dietary supplement, and the item is widely used throughout the beauty industry for hair and skin. It is also said to offer a small amount of UV-A and B protection.

Many natural or nearly natural companies commonly use this butter due to its ability to help nourish, moisturize and repair the skin. The ingredient is naturally high in Vitamin C, which is great for promoting skin growth and regeneration. It's also rich in antioxidants, which help to fight free radicals that can plague the skin, causing signs of premature aging, among other things as well. It's also said to help heal skin that suffers from various skin ailments, such as psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis and cracked skin.

The fruit contains high amounts of essential fatty acids. Essential fatty acids are well known for making an individual's skin supple, soft and can add elasticity. In fact, cupuacu has a high concentration of these beneficial acids, helping to promote radiant and healthy-looking skin.

People often have dry skin as a result of environmental factors, stress, hormones, or certain health concerns. This is why many turn to this product, since it boasts a high amount of emollient properties, particularly phytosterols. These help retain the skin's natural moisture, even while adding some of their own natural and nourishing moisture to help keep the skin and hair soft, as well as supple and healthy.

Cupuacu butter is particularly becoming more popular and well known for having one of the highest amounts of antioxidants when compared to other foods and fruits. Antioxidants are crucial in fighting free radicals. This helps people to fight back the signs of aging, such as wrinkles, sunspots, uneven complexions and textures, and potentially certain types of skin cancers as well.
