Abstract:
1. A method of preparing a topical preparation for treating ashy skin, comprising: selecting a plurality of plant-derived butters having a melting point around 37 degrees Centigrade, said plant-derived butters selected from the group consisting of mango butter, shea butter, cocoa butter, aloe butter and avocado butter; melting at least one of said plant-derived butters with a heat source at around 58 degrees Centigrade to form a butter base in a molten state; cooling the molten butter base by mixing at least one additional plant-derived butter and a liquid fatty acid into the molten butter base at low sheer to form an anhydrous slurry; slowly cooling the anhydrous slurry in a controlled manner so as to control crystallization and polymorphism, resulting in polymorphs of said anhydrous slurry having a melting point around 37 degrees Centigrade; cooling the anhydrous slurry into a semi-solid state; and mixing a polysiloxane into said cooled slurry at low shear until the mixture is completely blended to form said topical preparation.
