Desert Moon Bath & Body are proud supporters of Palm oil that is verified RSPO sustainable and is organically grown and cultivated. This means the rain forests and Orangutang's are protected from large companies who have no regard to the consequences while cultivating and growing the palm tree. However, there are sustainable producers/farmers who DO have regard for the animals and the rain forest. Read more about RSPO sustainable Palm Oil below. The price is a bit higher but well worth supporting the cause
We ship in a bottle during hot summer months to help reduce risk of leaking.
Easily dispensed with hot water bath or using the warm sun to melt the oil.
Also 15 oz will only fit into our 16 oz containers.
