Shea Butter

Shea Butter A natural lipid obtained from the fruit of the Karite tree of Ghana, butyrosperum parkii, the slightly greenish butter from the Shea Nut has soothing protecting qualities and sunscreening properties. Shea Butter adds and maintains moisture in dry, brittle hair, in addition to revitalizing, repairing and preventing breakage, and promoting hair growth. Allergy note Shea Butter is not actually from a nut, but is derived from pressing the whole fruit, which is much like an avocado.
