Everyone knows shea butter. But it has very interesting virtues that we can sometimes forget.

Here is a list of 7 benefits of shea butter, to discover or re-discover.

Shea butter is made from the fruits of the tree of the same name. It is found in West and Central Africa in wooded savannas. Its name means butter tree.

In Africa, it is used in cooking, in health and in beauty, in particular because of the difficult climatic conditions which put a strain on the epidermis. It also finds its place in sacred rituals. Real white gold, it was exported to Europe thanks to its proven benefits.

1. Soothing

I use shea butter on theeczema by Louloute and my grandmother uses it for her psoriasis. It immediately softens, soothes and above all, protects all skin types. It should be used daily. Guaranteed without allergies !

2. Moisturizer

All winter long, I don't mind applying it to my face. It moisturizes and fights against wrinkles. Shea butter effectively fights the aggressions of the winter cold or household products, so I also use it for my hands and my nails.

3. Fabric softener

Goodbye orange peel and stretch marks! Shea butter will become my best friend! He will correct all my little flaws. And besides, I have a great excuse for my darling to give me delicious massages !!!

4. Protector

I use shea butter to heal my chapped lips in winter and summer and it is a great base for my lipstick. It's also amazing for protecting and hydrating my baby's bottom and whole body. And finally, it acts like a sunscreen by protecting against UV rays or relieving sunburns.

5. Nourishing

Shea butter beautifies my hair. I use it as a mask when I want to grow my hair. It is indeed very effective on dry ends, preventing them from becoming split too quickly. All over my hair, it replaces the gel and prevents drying out (especially when I use a hair dryer in winter).

6. Regenerating

Especially on the legs and feet. We rarely think about it, and yet! For crevices, but also corns or warts. Applied at bedtime, it removes these ugly calluses without having to sand. Personally, I also put it on my legs after my waxing or exfoliation.
