Is this shea butter suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, this pure shea butter is generally suitable for sensitive skin as it's a natural emollient with minimal ingredients. It's free from harsh chemicals, fragrances, and hexane. However, individuals with tree nut allergies should exercise caution due to its origin. Reviewers have noted its moisturizing properties without causing irritation.

How long does the moisturizing effect last?

NOW Foods Shea Butter is designed to seal in moisture effectively. While specific duration varies by individual skin type and environmental factors, its emollient properties create a protective barrier that helps maintain skin hydration for extended periods, often lasting through the day with a single application.

Is this shea butter greasy or sticky?

Shea butter has a rich, luxurious texture that absorbs well into the skin. While it is an emollient designed to seal moisture, it is not typically described as greasy or sticky when applied correctly. Warming it slightly before application can help it absorb more smoothly, especially in cooler temperatures.

Does this product contain parabens or sulfates?

No, NOW Foods Shea Butter is formulated without harsh chemicals. It is free from parabens, sulfates, and hexane, aligning with the brand's commitment to high-quality personal care products. It is also vegan and made with natural ingredients.

Can I use this shea butter on my face and body?

This shea butter is primarily recommended for body use, especially for dry and rough areas like elbows, knees, and feet, and can also be used as a scalp moisturizer. While it is pure, some individuals with oily or acne-prone facial skin may find it too rich for daily facial application. It's best to test on a small area if considering facial use.

What is the shelf life of this shea butter?

The product has a shelf life of 12 months after opening, which is standard for creams and lotions. It is recommended to store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its quality and efficacy. Always check the packaging for any specific manufacturer dates.

Why choose this product

Pure, Natural Emollient for Deep Hydration

NOW Foods Shea Butter offers a direct path to deeply moisturized skin. Unlike many local lotions that dilute their active ingredients, this product is 100% pure shea butter. Its natural composition is rich in fatty acids and vitamins, making it an exceptional emollient that penetrates deeply to condition and soften dry, rough skin. It effectively seals in moisture, preventing water loss and leaving skin feeling supple and smooth. This is the essence of natural skin conditioning, providing a luxurious feel without synthetic additives or harsh chemicals, ensuring your skin receives only the best from nature.

Who It's For & Who Should Skip It

This pure shea butter is ideal for individuals with very dry, rough, or flaky skin, particularly on areas like elbows, knees, and feet. It's also suitable for those seeking a natural scalp moisturizer or a simple, effective body conditioner. If you have extremely oily skin or are sensitive to natural nut-derived products, you might find it too rich for daily facial use. For those with such sensitivities, consider a lighter, non-comedogenic moisturizer. However, for targeted dry skin relief and overall body hydration, it's an excellent choice.

How to use

If the shea butter is solid, gently warm the jar in a pan of hot water for 30 minutes or scoop out the desired amount into a microwave-safe container and heat until soft. This ensures smooth application. — Warm the Shea Butter
Gently apply the softened shea butter to dry or rough skin areas, paying close attention to elbows, knees, and feet. Reapply as needed throughout the day for continuous moisture. — Apply to Skin
For scalp application, warm a small amount and massage gently into the scalp. Leave on for a period before washing, or use as a leave-in treatment for targeted dryness. — Use as Scalp Moisturizer
