Organic Fractionated Shea Oil

Description

Shea oil, is therefore a by-product of shea butter, and is much more labour intensive and therefore harder to come by. The most important difference between shea butter and shea oil is the texture. While shea butter is solid at room temperature and has a denser creamier texture, shea oil is in liquid form and has a thick oily texture. Shea oil has a wonderful deep golden color and has a flat yet characteristic odor, although the refined oil may be deodorized to make it odorless. Shea oil acts as a powerful moisturizer for dry, flaky skin. Shea oil can be used for a variety of skin ailments such as rosacea, psoriasis and eczema as it has anti-inflammatory compounds and healing properties such as humectant properties and soothing properties.
