Organic Pumpkin Seed Butter

Cucurbita pepo

Organic pumpkin seed butter is packed full of vitamins and oils to soothe, moisturise, brighten, firm and rejuvenate!

Cucurbita pepo is native to China, which was the first pumpkin producing country in the world. It belongs to the cucumber (Cucurbitaceae) family, range from yellow to bright orange in colour and can grow very large and heavy. There are many annual record-breaking attempts from growing the largest to how fast one can carve a face into a pumpkin - can you beat 24 seconds?

The edible flesh, encased in a tough outer shell, contains an inner membrane and seeds. The seeds are usually coated in a thin husk (although huskless varieties exist) and are extremely nutritious.

Lush sources this deeply moisturising, organic butter from the UK.
