Benefits of Shea Butter Skin:

1. Moisturizing

Shea butter is known for its healing properties, which can be attributed to the presence of several fatty acids and plant sterols such as oleic, palmitic, stearic, and linolenic acids. These oil-soluble components do not undergo saponification or convert into soap on coming in contact with alkalis. Shea butter is more non-saponifiable than other nut oils and fats, thus imparting it great healing potential. Raw, unrefined shea butter is effective in curing skin rashes, skin peeling after tanning, scars, stretch marks, frost bites, burns, athletes foot, insect bites and stings, and acne

2. Anti-inflammatory, bacterial and fungal

Shea butter helps your skin react less to irritants. Helps with psoriasis, eczema on the skin and soothes itchiness and dryness. It reduces breakouts such as acne with its antibacterial properties, fighting those skin borne bacteria and fungi causing pimples and acne.

3. Even skin tone

Shea Butter is filled with vitamin A and E which are perfect for evening out your skin tone giving you a beautiful glow. Fighting those stubborn dark spots.

4. Stretch Marks

It also helps with stretch marks by adding elasticity back into your skin and preventing stretch marks from occuring.

5. Hair Care - Prevents breakage

It has a high fatty acid content (just like shea butter), which makes it easy for it to penetrate hair in oil form. This can help with hair breakage.

Moisturizing

Filled with Vitamins A and E along with essential fatty acids, shea butter has both emollient and healing properties for the skin. Some of these ingredients, such as the high content of fatty acids in shea butter, are also thought to help add moisture to your hair. This might possibly reduce dryness and prevent split ends. Fatty acids also help increase shine and reduce the frizz of your hair. It may also help protect hair from heat damage caused by flat irons and blow drying.

Reduces scalp irritation

Shea butter’s anti-inflammatory properties might also help reduce redness and scalp irritation by providing healing effects without clogging the pores. Additionally, as a natural product, it’s safe to use on all types of hair, even hair that’s damaged, dry, or color treated.

Raw shea butter isn’t the only hair care solution available. Certain over-the-counter hair care products (especially conditioners) also contain shea butter. The role of conditioners in overall hair health includes strengthening hair fibers, lubricating cuticles, and reducing frizz.

The Shea butter has a strong nutty smell, very organic and natural scent. Add some essential oils to change the scent and make it more pleasant. Store at room temperature.

Uses:
