Shea Butter is an excellent emollient for both skin and hair
care applications. Shea Butter is extracted from the fruit of the Shea Butter
Tree (Butyrospermum Parkii) and the resulting oil is refined by a mechanical
process. This process goes through several steps in order to improve flavor,
color and oxidative stability. Shea Butter consists mainly of oleic and stearic
acid triglycerides and a large fraction of unsaponifiables (12%) rich in phytosterol
esters.
For sensitive, dry and aging skin Shea Butter has gained
considerable interest because of its unique characteristics. Shea Butter is
naturally rich in vitamins A, E & F which are essential for good skin balance.
Shea Butter can act as an anti-inflammatory and helps prevent irritation from
sunburns, tiny cuts and scrapes. Because of shea butter healing properties it
is beneficial in cell regeneration and capillary circulation.
The melting point of Shea Butter is close to body temperature
and it is therefore easy and pleasant to use. Karite-one leaves a satin finish
to the skin and improves suppleness. Its continuous use gradually helps diminish
the appearance of premature wrinkles and fine lines. It can also be used during
pregnancy to keep skin elasticity, making stretch marks much less noticeable.
