Natural Shea Butter has a rich, luxurious texture that is well absorbed by the skin to condition and moisturize every type of skin. Shea Butter is derived from the tree nuts of the karite trees that grow in Western and Central Africa. It is a wonderful emollient that's perfect for daily use. Can also be used as a scalp moisturizer. Shea butter will melt when warmed above body temperature and becomes solid again when it cool, this is natural and may affect the appearance but will not harm the quality of the product.
