Escentia Shea Butter Refined 1L
N$274.30Shea Butter Refined
Shea Butter (or African butter) is a natural plant extract that is high in fatty acids and other nutrients. This moisture-rich butter is used as an emollient that helps to smooth and soften your skin. It melts at body temperature and is therefore easily absorbed.
- Shea butter can be used directly on skin as a wonderful moisturiser.
- You will find shea butter in a wide range of products including lip gloss, hair conditioners, skin moisturiser creams, soaps, massage candles and medicinal balms.
- It can also be used to treat other skin problems such as; blemishes, eczema, skin allergies, wrinkles, itching, insect bites, and even frost bite.
- Shea butter has a limited capacity to absorb ultraviolet radiation and can therefore can be used as a mild sun block.
Suggested use: Please conduct your own research
Hair tip: You can use shea butter to reduce frizziness and get your hair to curl the way you want. Just apply a small amount of shea butter to fingertips—press your fingertips to the butter with moderate pressure to get just enough to feel tacky. Then rub fingertips on unruly hair. You can then restyle with a blow drier and brush. The heat from the dryer melts the shea butter, the brush spreads it evenly through your hair, and the hair curls the way you style it.
Further information:
Tips on working with Shea Butter in Formulations
Shea butter contains various fatty acids which each have a specific temperature range where they melt and solidify. When the butter is melted and heat is unevenly distributed some fatty acids may solidify quicker than others, resulting in a grainy texture. Sometimes these grains take days, weeks or even months to appear. There is nothing wrong with the butter if it is grainy, but most prefer a smooth, buttery texture.
To prevent graininess and grain formation you will need to make sure that heat is evenly distributed during the cool down process. This is best achieved by constantly stirring the melted butter during cool down. Unfortunately simply pouring melted shea butter into jars and leaving to cool at room temperature without evenly distributing the heat will likely result in grains. So rather gently stir your melted butter while it cools for best results.

Is it Safe for Pets?:
Vetiver is one of the safest essential oils and is a great oil to use for animals. Some essential oils (particularly citrus oils) can be harmful to pets, especially cats, so it is advisable to check with your vet before trying.
Essential oils and the chakras:
According to Fischer-Rizzi Susanne “The earthly fragrance of the vetiver oil supports all those who have lost touch with the earth or with their roots”.

About Standardised Essential Oils:
Standardised essential oils are produced to achieve a standard scent, whereas a single species essential oil may vary in scent because it is an individual plant species that can naturally vary with season, rainfall, soil quality, geography and a variety of other factors. Standardising the scent by combining multiple species is a method of producing an oil that will always be similar in quality. Standardised oils can therefore be quite beneficial when scent reliability is required.
Standardised essential oils are pure essential oils which have not been diluted, filled or altered in any way. The only differentiating factor between standardised essential oils and others is that multiple variations of plant species are distilled. -
