Raw Organic Unrefined Shea Butter

This quality Shea Butter comes in a glass jar for ultimate storage and keeps your Shea Butter fresh.
 
Unrefined Organic Shea Butter is a fat that is extracted from the nuts of the shea tree. 
 
Shea butter is used as a cosmetic ingredient because of its high concentration of vitamins and fatty acids that makes it a great product for smoothing, soothing and conditioning your skin. 
 
Shea butter is typically used for its moisturising effects because of its fatty acid content, including linoleic, oleic, stearic, and palmitic acids. So, when applied topically, these oils are rapidly absorbed into your skin. Shea butter also has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antifungal properties, and has also been known to prevent acne, reduce the appearance of stretch marks, scarring, fine lines and wrinkles and it can boost collagen production.
 
What is the difference between Refined and Unrefined Shea Butter? 
Unrefined Shea Butter  maintains its nutty scent, beige colour, and its healing properties through extraction. 
Refined Shea Butter  has been chemically altered to remove shea butter’s natural scent, is bleach white in colour and retains only a small portion of its natural healing properties.
