What is shea healing butter?
Shea butter is solid which comes from the natural fat obtained
from the pit of the fruit of the African karite tree grown in
West and Central Africa. Also referred to as karite butter. Shea
butter is an emollient that is extremely therapeutic, helping
to heal cracked, aged and damaged skin. Its chemical constituents
help to heal small wounds, burns, and skin ulcers, bruising and
soreness, and penetrates the skin and leaves it feeling soft and
smooth. Shea butter which also contains vitamin A and E has a
high content of unsaponifiables and phytosterol, which have antimicrobial
and moisturizing properties and provide protection from the UV
and stimulate the skin's renewal process, providing a more youthful,
vibrant appearance. It's texture is typically soft and butter-like
so it melts readily into the skin.
