African Shea butter is a natural paste extracted from the nut (fruit) of the African Shea tree found mainly in Western Africa. It contains an abundant amount of irremovable fatty acid which renders it far superior to Cocoa Butter and other natural vegetable butter. This fatty acid is crucial to rejuvenating and moisturizing the skin. Shea butter provides all essential vitamins needed to make the skin look and feel smoother, softer, and, most importantly, healthier. Its therapeutic properties protect the skin from wind, cold sun, and it helps heal wounds faster. Shea butter stimulates cellular activity, fights the effects of aging and repairs rough, damaged skin. When pure and unrefined, it has a yellowish texture and gives out a nutty fragrance. Shea butter is most extensively used all over the world for its proven moisturizing and healing properties. It is best to use it unrefined as it loses some of its fundamental healing properties during the refining process. Whats the difference? Ivory shea butter has a somewhat hard texture, similar to firm cookie dough. However, when compared to yellow shea butter, ivory is softer and melts easier. Yellow shea butter is made from the same Karite nut. It is processed similarly, but the root of the Borututu tree is added during the milling process. The root is responsible for the bright yellow color. Borututu is a medicinal plant from Africa. It is also used externally as a wash. Although both yellow and ivory shea butter comes from the same source, the yellow variety is slightly more firm and takes a little longer to absorb into the skin. The smell is very similar to ivory shea butter. The two kinds of butter are more or less the same. Some people say that yellow is better for skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis because it stays on the skin longer. Please note: It comes in a polybag. If the butter gets stuck on the bag, please leave it in a refrigerator till the butter gets chilled and become firm & stable. In this way, you can get the butter out from the bag nice and clean.
