Makes 3 Organics® Organic Shea Butter is pure and unrefined which ensures by using our Shea Butter products you will experience all of the healing benefits this natural nut butter is known for.  Ours comes from Africa and is cold pressed from the Shea Nut with out chemical extraction methods common in processed Shea Butter.  Natural Shea Butter is solid at room temperature and readily melts into your skin when warmed with your hands.  It has a distinctive nutty aroma which makes it easy to identify true Shea Butter. 

If other Shea Butter products are a liquid lotion at room temperature and do not exhibit its distinctive aroma, then that product may not actually be Shea Butter, or it has been adulterated with synthetic processing which dilutes or even eliminates its healing properties.

Because our Shea Butter is Certified Organic by the USDA, you can be assured that it is free from agricultural, industrial and cosmetic chemicals that can dilute its efficacy and harm your skin and body.

Known as the Tree of Life, the Shea Nut Tree produces a fruit with tremendous potential.  We create ultra-healing Vitamin A blends in all of our Organic Shea Butter products.  From treating blemishes, to insect bites, wrinkles, crepey skin and more, this gift from nature truly delivers.

There are three main reasons* you want to use Shea Butter in your daily skincare routines:

• It Moisturizes ~ The concentration of natural vitamins and fatty acids in Shea Butter makes it incredibly nourishing and moisturizing for skin. It is often used to remedy dry skin and to help protect the skin’s natural oils.
• It Reduces Inflammation ~ Due to its cinnamic acid concentration and other natural properties, Shea Butter is anti-inflammatory. One compound in particular, lupeol cinnamate, was found to reduce skin inflammation and even potentially help avoid skin mutations. This also makes it beneficial for some people with acne.
• It Smooths Your Skin ~ Shea Butter aids in the skin’s natural collagen production and contains oleic, stearic, palmitic, and linolenic acids that protect and nourish the skin to prevent drying. With long-term use, many people report skin softening and strengthening as well as wrinkle reduction.

Shea Butter has been used by millennia to promote usefulness and good health.  We find our products containing our Organic Shea Butter can be used universally on your skin for myriad reasons, including*:

• As a moisturizer directly on face and body
