The benefits of Shea Butter

The benefits of shea butter are endless for your skin.  Especially wonderful for feet, elbows and dry patches of the body.    The butter itself comes from the fruit of the karite tree, from Africa.  The benefits for your skin are:-

• It is a moisturiser with its high content of fatty acids and vitamins
• Nourishing for the reasons above
• Anti-inflammatory with its high content of cinnamic acid
• Helps with the collagen production in the skin so long-term use of it has been known to help against wrinkles

We have shea butter in almost all our products; natural deodorant, lip balm, body butter, hand cream, face cream, handmade natural soaps, shampoo bars, beard balm and shaving soaps,  because we have long since realised how wonderful an aid it is to the hair and skin.

The benefits of shea butter to the hair are also many:-

• Strengthens the hair thus helping against split ends
• As for the skin, it is moisturising and in a non greasy way
• As it is anti-inflammatory it relieves itchy scalp
