Hi Everyone!
Today, I’m reviewing the Natural Ivory Shea Butter from a brand called Shea Noir.
Extracted from the nuts of the shea tree native to the North Region of Ghana, our unrefined shea butter is naturally rich in
vitamins A, E and F as well as the essential fatty acids and the nutrients necessary for smooth healthy moisturized skin and hair.
Benefits include:
• Helps cover the look of Acne/Blemishes
• Helps Reduce the looks of wrinkles and aging
• May help reduce Itchy/Peeling Skin
I put the shea butter into a jar for easier access. I’ve never used shea butter on its own before. One time I got shea butter as a sample from another brand, but the texture was very different – It was hard! This shea butter came in plastic wrap inside of a resealable bag. It has the texture of cookie dough. From the heat of your hands, it melts down making it easy to rub into your skin. I tested it out on my feet as a patch test and they felt so smooth the next day. It can feel a bit tacky and that’s not my favourite feeling since it makes your clothes stick to your skin.
RATING: 4/5
I like to use it on the drier areas of my skin like my feet and elbows. In the winter, I’ll probably use it on my hands with cotton gloves at night. I’ve heard some people use it on their hair. My hair is already oily enough, so I haven’t tried it. I think shea butter is especially great to use during the colder months (which is most of the year in Canada).
Have you tried shea butter?
Love,
