Ideal for dry and sensitive skin, including babies and children - nourishes, smooths, soothes irritation and promotes skin regeneration!

Pure, unrefined, organic Shea butter. Melted at a low temperature (up to 50'C), it does not lose its beneficial properties. Shea butter (also known as Karite butter) is a classic of natural care. This wonderful and versatile spread is obtained from the nuts of an African tree called Butter Parka. It cares for everything that needs care, tenderness and regeneration. With its high content of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids (including oleic, stearic and linoleic acids), shea butter perfectly protects against excessive evaporation of water from the epidermis, which translates into increased levels of skin hydration. Unrefined shea butter also contains vitamins A, E and F, as well as unsaponifiable fractions, which help to keep the skin in good condition, promote skin regeneration and collagen synthesis. Shea is excellent at nourishing and smoothing, protecting and supporting the skin's regenerative processes.

Shea butter (karite) is considered a hypoallergenic product and can be used as a basis for daily care. It is suitable for babies and children and people with sensitive, atopic, irritable and dry skin.

Shea butter is an unrefined and organic product - depending on the batch, its aroma can be more or less noticeable - ranging from buttery and nutty to sour, smoky. This is a natural characteristic of this raw material.

Directions for use: 

Use as: nourishing body butter (also for children and babies), bath additive, eye butter/serum

Body butter: Warm a portion of the butter in your hands. Apply to cleansed skin and massage in gently until completely absorbed.

Bath additive: Add a small portion of butter to your bath. Be careful when getting out - the bath can be slippery!

Eye butter/serum: Apply to cleansed, moistened (e.g. with hydrolate) skin. Gently massage in a circular motion until completely absorbed.
Note: Do not apply shea butter directly on the eyelids or too close to the lash line, so that the product does not get into the eyes.

In our climate, shea butter comes in the form of a fairly hard butter, sometimes a little lumpy - so handling it requires a little patience and practice. Take a bit of butter from the jar and slowly melt it in your hands (the butter melts at a little under 40'C). In summer, of course, it is easier and Shea is more gracious to apply. The butter can also be "softened" by putting the jar in a water bath.

Avoid direct contact with the eyes. For external use only. Store in a cool, dry and shaded place.
