Pure Shea Butter

This pure body butter from HelemaalShea has only one ingredient: unrefined (raw) shea butter. The butter has a nutty scent and because it is whipped like whipped cream it has a light, creamy, luxurious texture. The body butter is suitable for very dry skin.

The Shea Body Butter by Helemaal Shea is a wonderful body lotion, but can also be used as a hair mask. Shea butter can improve hair structure, works moisturizing, stimulates hair growth and is certainly also effective for a dry scalp.

Raw shea butter is a natural fat extracted from the nuts of the shea tree, also called Karite tree, a typical African Savannah tree. Shea Butter contains fatty acids such as oleic acid, stearic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, behenic acid, cinnamic acid and palmitic acid. The unique fatty acid profile of this Shea Butter combined with the high content of non-saponifiable fats gives this Shea Butter a very softening effect, especially for very dry skin. It is also known for its positive contribution to the elasticity of the skin. It is rich in vitamin F, known for its restorative effect on the skin.

Instructions for use
The butter melts at a temperature of 31 °C, making it very easy to spread on the skin and it is quickly absorbed.

Body
The body butter is made without adding water. This gives you a truly pure, undiluted product. Take some body butter from the tin (possibly with the help of a spatula) and let it melt between your fingers before applying it to your skin. Applying the body butter is easier if your hands are warm.

Her
Apply a little of the butter to dry hair. Start at the roots and work your way to the ends. Massage well, comb through and leave on for ten minutes to overnight. Then wash out. Use as often as needed depending on hair type. Can also be used as a conditioner, use a small amount after washing, leave on for a while and rinse out.

For extra dry and frizzy hair, apply a small amount (really just a tiny bit) to clean hair before styling.

Packaging
The lid of the recyclable aluminum can contains a plastic liner. The plastic liner ensures that the can is sealed better, so that the contents remain fresh for longer and do not leak. We recommend reusing the cans as much as possible. When you throw them away, remove the plastic liner from the lid and put it in the plastic waste.
