Information — shea butter

Shea butter, derived from African shea tree nuts, is a natural moisturizer with Vitamins A and E and fatty acids. It helps keep skin soft and moisturized by restoring lipids and creating moisture. Shea butter is used in medicinal ointments and sunblock lotions due to its anti-inflammatory properties. It also helps minimize irritation caused by dry weather and is sometimes used for eczema. Shea butter slows down growth, promotes healthy cell growth, and increases collagen production, reducing fine lines and wrinkles. It prevents acne by clearing excess oil and restoring moisture. Shea butter also aids hair by increasing collagen production, restoring tissue fiber and reducing breakage. It can also help with dandruff, a dry scalp that blocks moisture.
