Benefits of Shea Butter

Natural Skin Care Ingredients

Hope you have learned something about my previous post, that was about the benefits of OLIVE OIL ) . As what I have said, Olive Oil is one of the most essential oil used by many.


Today, we are going to talk about one of the most effective natural skin care ingredients, and that is SHEA BUTTER. Let us review first what is Shea Butter and where it came from. I will give you some noted review first before proceeding to the benefits we acquired in using Shea Butter.


Shea butter is one of the most popular Natural Beauty Skin Care products. It performs miracle in some cases. It is also known as Karite butter, a slightly yellowish fatty substance removed from the nut of the Shea tree that grows in the Savannah Regions of  West and Central Africa.

Here is how Shea's nut looks like.

The Shea Butter extracted  from the nut of the Shea tree.

Manual extraction made when taking raw unrefined Shea butter from Shea Nuts and this how it looks like.

Most people recognize the health and beauty benefits of using Shea butter. There are some different process of extracting Shea butter such as: 

1. Manual extraction (pure raw unrefined using water only), Creamy color or slightly yellowish; it has an unpleasant smell.

2. Refined- processed with natural components present.

3. Highly refined- highly processed with solvent to increase the yield; pure white.

For me, the highly processed Shea Butter is not really that effective compare to raw unrefined because it is mixed with the other substances after extraction that may reduce its benefits. Personally, I prefer pure raw, no chemical added. It is just manually removed and extracted while others are mechanically extracted to lessen the odor. 

Here are some list of benefits:

1. Shea butter is proven and tested to be effective in any skin problems such as skin rashes, dry skin, sunburn, skin allergy, eczema, dermatitis, insect bites, sunburns, skin wounds and a lot. 

2. It also helps to lighten dark spots and discolorations if continue using.

3. It is also used as a sun block.

4. It is also used to relieve nasal congestion.

5. It provides moisture to dry and damaged hair. It protects your hair away from the dullness and dryness.

6. It serves as an anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory.

7. It has Vit. A, Vit. E, Cinnamic acid, Triterpenes and lots of nutrients.

8. It is also good for dry, choppy lips.

There it goes!
