Shea butter is fat that’s extracted from the nuts of the shea tree that are native to West Africa. Shea butter has been used as a cosmetic ingredient for centuries. Its high concentration of vitamins and fatty acids — combined with its easy-to-spread consistency — make it a great product for smoothing, soothing, and conditioning your skin.
 
Shea butter is perfect for all skin types, it's moisturizing, and won't leave your skin oily. It's antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antifungal and an anti-oxidant. It helps boost collagen production, and promotes cell regeneration, reduces the appearance of stretch marks and scarring, fine lines and wrinkles. It soothes eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis and itchy skin. It soothes sunburns and skin burns as well as insect bites. And, promotes wound healing.
