Raw Shea Butter
Shea butter has been used as a cosmetic ingredient for centuries. Its high concentration of vitamins and fatty acids – combined with its easy-to-spread consistency – make it a great product for smoothing, soothing, and conditioning your skin.
It’s safe for all skin types: Shea butter is technically a tree nut product. But unlike most tree nut products, it’s very low in the proteins that can trigger allergies
It’s moisturizing: Shea butter is typically used for its moisturizing effects. These benefits are tied to shea’s fatty acid content, including linoleic, oleic, stearic, and palmitic acids.
It’s anti-inflammatory: The plant esters of shea butter have been found to have anti-inflammatory properties. When applied to the skin, shea triggers cytokines and other inflammatory cells to slow their production.
It may help prevent acne: Shea butter is rich in different kinds of fatty acids. This unique composition helps clear your skin of excess oil (sebum). At the same time, shea butter restores moisture to your skin and locks it into your epidermis, so your skin doesn’t dry out or feel “stripped” of oil.
it may help reduce the appearance of stretch marks and scarring
It’s thought that shea butter stops keloid fibroblasts – scar tissue – from reproducing while encouraging healthy cell growth to take their place. This may help your skin heal, minimizing the appearance of stretch marks and scarring.
It may help prevent hair breakage: Shea butter hasn’t been studied specifically for its ability to make hair stronger
It may help soothe conditions like eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis: Shea’s anti-inflammatory properties help soothe skin and relieve itching. This may prove especially helpful for inflammatory skin conditions, such as eczema and psoriasis
It may help relieve arthritis pain: Arthritis is caused by underlying inflammation in the joints. A 2016 study on shea oil concentrate suggests that it can help reduce inflammation while also protecting joints from further damage.
