Shea Butter: Benefits in Skincare Products

Shea Butter is an organic fat that is extracted from the nuts of the Shea tree found in central Africa. This ingredient has been used in Africa for centuries and was discovered by European travellers. They found out that this butter has amazing benefits, so it became popular all over the world. Shea butter can be used to make lotions, creams and balms. It will take care of your skin, because it moisturises it and heals damaged skin cells caused by shaving.

In this short blog post you will learn about 5 of the biggest benefits of Shea butter:



It moisturises skin


Shea butter is a natural skin moisturiser that helps to improve the texture and elasticity of your skin which makes it perfect for mature skin. Shea butter can also help protect against environmental damage, such as sun exposure, which can lead to dryness and premature ageing. As a result, it is used in many cosmetic products designed to keep your skin hydrated and smooth.


Shea butter has been shown to be an effective treatment for dry, damaged or irritated skin because it absorbs quickly into the epidermis (the outermost layer of your skin). This makes it non-greasy so you don’t have to worry about feeling greasy or oily after applying!


It has healing properties


  • Shea butter is a natural source of vitamins A, E, and F.


  • It also has anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce the redness associated with shaving.


  • It is rich in fatty acids and other essential nutrients like antioxidants which help regenerate your skin’s outer layer.


It contains anti-inflammatory agents


Shea butter is rich in vitamins E and A, which are known to have anti-inflammatory properties. The butter helps reduce swelling from cuts or burns caused by shaving. They also help preventing razor burn or ingrown hairs


It has a high content of vitamin E


One of the great benefits of Shea butter is its high content of vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps to protect the skin from free radicals.


Vitamin E is known for its ability to reduce sagging and wrinkles as it improves skin elasticity, hydration and smoothness. It is great for people with mature or dry skin.


Shea butter is one of the best ingredients in an after-shave balm that will take care of your skin.


Shea butter is the one of the best ingredients in an after-shave balm that will take care of your mature skin. It has anti-inflammatory properties which can help reduce redness and irritation. Shea butter also contains vitamins A and E, as well as some essential fatty acids, which keep your skin moist and soft. Shea butter is completely natural so it's perfect cosmetic products including lotions, creams, and balms.


Shea butter is probably the best ingredient in an after-shave balm that will take care of your skin. That's why we chose to include it in our Shaveman's After Shave Balm. It moisturises the skin while also making it softer. It also has a soothing effect on irritated areas such as razor burn or dry patches that appear on our faces when shaving every morning.
