Specifications:
Butyrospermum Parkii Butter
Application:
Plant oil from the seeds of the African Shea tree (Butyrospermum parkii). In its unprocessed form, it has a paste-like consistency, beige to slightly greenish-beige color, with a delicate scent. The butter is obtained through a mechanical cold-pressing process, without refinement, preserving more nutrients. It is an excellent source of fatty acids (oleic, stearic, linoleic), vitamins A, E, and F, phytosterols, and polyphenols. Suitable for formulations on all skin areas, including the eye area, and for hair care. Works well as a natural thickener with strong moisturizing properties in the production of homemade creams and balms. Add it to cosmetic formulations in the oily phase, after heating to a temperature of 35-40°C. Recommended concentration in formulations is 2-90%.

Improves skin elasticity and firmness, prevents the formation of wrinkles. Moisturizes, regenerates, and improves the barrier functions of the skin. Protects against external factors such as UV radiation, frost, or wind – strengthens the cell cement and creates a protective film on the skin's surface. Soothes inflammation. Does not cause allergies, recommended for the care of sensitive children's and infant's skin. Calms irritations, redness, and itching. Provides relief after sunbathing and insect bites, as well as for conditions such as Atopic Dermatitis, psoriasis, or eczema. Shea butter also cares for the hair, closing hair cuticles and smoothing frizzy strands. Recommended for the care of dry, dyed, and heat-damaged hair (e.g., using a curling iron or straightener).
