Our SHEA BUTTER is 100% Pure Unrefined and Raw. It is made from the nut of the African Shea Tree. The peculiar strength of Shea butter is due to its up to 8% content of UN-SAPONIFIABLES.
Unrefined Shea Butter is naturally rich in a number of vitamins which balances and normalizes the skin. It helps keep it clear and healthy and it is particularly beneficial for dry or sun-exposed skin. It has a soothing and hydrating properties which provides healthy skin collagen to prevent premature wrinkles, premature facial lines, and premature slackened skin. It soothes rough, dry, or chapped skin on contact and helps soften and revitalize dry or damaged hair.
It consists of linoleic, linolenic, and arachidonic acids, these are three essential fatty acids found in it. Processing/refining Raw Shea Butter takes away its natural healing properties. It is important to preserve the ancient methods of Shea Butter production. By using it in its RAW state rather than processed, there are countless benefits. Since Unrefined Shea Butter is extracted traditionally or cold pressed, the color may vary between light grey, ivory/almond pale and light yellow. The color of Unrefined Shea Butter also depends on the Shea Nut itself which determines the color of the butter.
