Unless you live under a rock you have heard of Shea. This African beauty staple is used in soaps, lotions, creams and in hair care products, Shea is the gift that keeps on giving.
Sourced from the Shea tree found in West and East Africa, shea butter remains a solid favourite when it comes to African Beauty Products due to its nourishing and healing properties. It comes in many formats such as liquid oil, light whipped butter and the standard creamy consistency.
Brands we believe are of the finest quality when it comes to Shea butter formulations.
Arami Essentials Sweet Oud Oil: This oil is light and glides smoothly onto your skin, and its great as a base to layer more products if you live in an extremely dry area. This shea oil goes above and beyond most as it can is also applied to your face. It caresses you in its light oud fragrance and is sure make you feel like a glowing goddess!
Nokware Whipped Shea Butter: Lovely and buttery, this cream is great for daily use and helps to keep skin moisturised without the greasiness. It’s light and gentle and comes it great variants. The aloe variant heals and clears any skin irritations.
Coruim Shea Butter: We love the thick richness of Corium’s Shea butter. The lemon scented variant is our absolute favourite! This is ideal for anyone with chronic dry skin, or skin that literally swallows up generic moisturizers and leaves your skin feeling parched by midday. A small amount glides easily across your skin, absorbs easily and leaves your skin soft and subtle all day.
