Unrefined shea butter. Here’s an unusual way to use it!

Are you looking for a solution for your dry lips? Do you want to reduce fine lines and prevent new ones from forming? Do you have skin problems, and do most cosmetics cause you an allergic reaction? Or perhaps you’re looking for a cream to treat puffiness and dark circles under your eyes? Try this skincare range pure TAMA® shea butter!

Shea butter is available in its pure form, but also as an ingredient in other products. It therefore has not only a wealth of properties, but also a wide range of uses. Not all of them are as obvious as you might think! 

Shea butter is a vegetable oil derived from the seeds of the African shea tree (Vitellaria parka). Pure shea butter, on the other hand, as the name suggests, contains no additives (including natural ones), fragrances or preservatives. It is a cosmetic product in its own right.

Please note! It is worth checking whether the butter is refined. This is important because the refining process removes nutrients, antioxidants and vitamins. That is why pure shea butter, which is also unrefined, offers more beneficial properties.

What properties does pure shea butter have?

This cosmetic product contains vitamins A, E, K and F, as well as natural antioxidants. Vitamins A and E have a firming effect and slow down the ageing process. Vitamin F enhances the lifting and skin-tightening effects. Meanwhile, thanks to vitamin K, pure shea butter has healing and regenerative properties. Due to its vitamin content, this cosmetic has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. It moisturises the skin without clogging the pores.
