Shea butter is a rich, solid butter that melts effortlessly upon contact with the skin, making it ideal for very dry skin and hair. It deeply moisturises, softens, and shields the skin from environmental stressors, and is highly effective as a natural barrier cream.
Widely used for its therapeutic benefits, shea butter is known to support the healing of various skin conditions and is valued for its wound-healing and skin-repairing properties. In cosmetics, it enhances skin texture, helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, and promotes a smoother, more supple complexion.
When applied to hair, shea butter helps tame frizz, nourish the scalp, and support overall hair health.
