I've read here that it's said that vitamin e along with the cocoa butter massages helps retain the growth from the cocoa butter.

I've read the same and have been wondering why this would be the case. Since vitamin E is fat-soluble, able to accumulate in fat cells for longer periods of time, maybe it 'traps' the cocoa butter and carries it in for storage, too?
Hmm, that sounds really unscientific once I put it in writing, lol. No idea how else to explain it.

Cocoa butter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cocoa butter, also called theobroma oil, is the edible natural fat of the cacao bean, extracted during the process of making chocolate and cocoa powder. Cocoa butter has only a mild chocolate flavor and aroma. It is the only cacao component used in the confection called white chocolate.
Cocoa butter is one of the ingredients used to make real chocolate. It has a melting point of around 34 to 38 degrees Celsius (93 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit), rendering chocolate a solid at room temperature that readily melts once inside the mouth.
Cocoa butter is one of the most stable fats known, containing natural antioxidants that prevent rancidity and give it a storage life of two to five years. It is used for its smooth texture in various foods (including chocolate), as well as in cosmetics, skin care products, and soaps and was used as an excipient in rectal suppositories.

I think that Teresina may be right. I think that I read that somewhere.
Maybe vitamin E should be used in other massage mixes too!
