What Are Shea Butter’s Benefits?

Oh, we’ll tell you alright.

But first, FUN FACTTT!

Shea Butter is completely edible and is even used in food prep in some African countries! We’re low-key wishing we could taste it rn ngl

Back to all the lovely benefits of Shea Butta

It’s going to make your skin baby smooth: Shea Butter is an extremely hydrating emollient, which means it’s going to help your skin retain its moisture content and improve skin texture over time because of how many fatty acids it contains!  It also aids in repairing your skin’s natural barrier which helps protect against damage of ALL kinds in the long run!

It also has anti-inflammatory properties that helps soothe your skin. Have you noticed that a lot of your sunscreen products add in Shea Butter to a LOT of the formulations? It’s also been used to treat eczema and psoriasis because it’s been known to have healing and soothing properties, pretty nifty huh?

Since Shea butter helps in regulating your skin’s moisture levels- people with oily skin have nothing to worry about with this extra nourishing ingredient. By reconfiguring your skin’s sebum production it ends up reducing all the excess oils your face produces! No more greasy face, all hail!

Our PlayPaint and Stacked In Your Favour palettes contain this holy grail ingredient that does oh so much for your skin and YOU! (sound familiar ahem ahem? ;))

See you next time!
