One in a Melon 🍉 Organic Shea Butter

Watermelon Scented Body Butter✔︎ SKIN FOOD MOISTURISER - 

Shea butter is a great emollient for the skin, scalp and hair. Shea butter melts at body temperature, acts as a "refatting" agent, has good water-binding properties and absorbs rapidly into the skin; making it perfect for moisturising. The high concentration of natural vitamins and fatty acids in shea butter makes it extremely nourishing for the skin. It is often used to remedy dry flaky skin and to protect natural skin oils. 

✔︎ RAW, ORGANIC AND UNREFINED -

Our Shea Butter is organic, not bleached or chemically processed. Minimal filtering has occurred to help retain its natural healing and moisturising abilities. Unrefined shea butter is naturally rich in fatty acids and vitamins A, E and F which have antioxidant, pro-ageing and moisturising properties that promote circulation and healthy skin cell growth.

✔︎ FOR ALL SKIN TYPES -

Due to its cinnamic acid, and other natural properties, shea butter is anti-inflammatory. One compound, in particular, lupeol cinnamate, was found to reduce skin inflammation. Therefore it is often used to help combat inflammation. If you are looking to reduce the appearance of stretch marks in pregnancy, cellulite or scarring, shea butter has incredible healing properties that can help manage a range of skin conditions

What is organic, unrefined shea 

Unrefined shea butter is the butter extracted from the shea nut, which is only grown in Western Africa. Our shea butter is unrefined, organic and raw, this means that it hasn't undergone any chemical refining process or extraction.

Our raw shea butter is extracted in the traditional way by a woman's co-operative in Ghana that is committed to empowering local women in the community.

Why choose organic, unrefined shea butter?

Unrefined organic shea butter is shea butter at its most natural. When pure shea butter is refined, the vitamins and minerals that are present in the shea butter are degraded by the heat and chemicals used in the process. Only the best organic shea nuts are used to create our unrefined shea butter, and this means that they haven't been sprayed with harmful pesticides.
