Skin Benefits
High concentrations of fatty acids and vitamins make shea butter an ideal cosmetic ingredient for softening skin. Shea butter also has anti-inflammatory and healing properties. Using shea butter on your body, especially your face, can condition, tone, and soothe your skin.
Hair Benefits
Shea butter contains vitamin A and E with essential fatty acids which are believed to add moisture and shine to the hair. Its non-greasy quality makes it an excellent moisturizer for the hair. It softens dry brittle hair and repairs split damaged ends as well.
Comedogenic Rating
Shea Butter is 0 on the comedogenic scale. As rich and luxurious as it is, it does not clog the pores.

Shea butter has a natural SPF of about 6-10, so combined with other oils containing natural sun protection like coconut oil or carrot seed oil, you can make your own natural sunscreen.
