Description
Composition of shea butter Shea butter is dense, has a light creamy tint, and consists mainly of triglycerides - substances formed by fatty acids - oleic, stearic, palmitic, as well as unsaponifiable fats, represented by caristerols - the active substances of the pulp of shea pits. Unsaponifiables are substances that are found mainly in plants and do not interact with alkalis, like fatty acids. In small quantities, shea butter also contains linoleic, linolenic, myristic acid, carbohydrates and proteins. It is the union of fatty acids and unsaponifiable fats that makes shea butter so popular in cosmetology. Even 70 years ago, scientists noticed that African peoples who use shea butter for their skin practically do not know what skin diseases are, and their skin remains surprisingly elastic and smooth for a long time. Properties and treatment of shea butter Shea butter has been used in cosmetology for more than 20 years, and the cosmetic products in which it is included are the most competitive in today's market. Shea butter has strong regenerating properties and protects the skin from sunlight, so in Africa it was always rubbed on small children and also used for adults. The oil is obtained only by cold pressing: it is very thick, heterogeneous, white or slightly creamy, with a slight nutty aroma. It becomes liquid at body temperature - already at 35 ° C, so it is easy to use as a massage - it spreads over the skin and is quickly absorbed. The anti-inflammatory properties of shea butter make it possible to use it to treat skin problems - acne, ulcers, dermatitis, as well as rub it into sore joints and muscles, relieve swelling. Although this oil does not have a vasoconstrictive effect, it can be used to successfully treat a runny nose - and anti-inflammatory properties work here too. Shea butter is called transport oil by cosmetologists, due to its ability to penetrate deep into the skin and deliver various useful components of cosmetics to its layers. These components are easily combined with the oil, and, getting into the skin, they are just as easily and quickly released from it. It is widely used in the care of lips, facial skin, hair, is part of sunscreen cosmetics and tanning cosmetics. Due to the regenerating properties of unsaponifiable fats, the oil stimulates collagen synthesis and is recommended for the care of mature and aging skin. The protective properties of the oil are due to triglycerides: the barrier functions of the skin are enhanced when it is used. The use of shea butter in cosmetology If you use shea butter regularly, as an independent remedy, then the complexion improves, the skin texture becomes denser, the tone increases, the depth of wrinkles decreases and the skin becomes elastic. Therefore, shea butter is often included in anti-aging cosmetics. Pregnant women are advised to use it to prevent stretch marks on the skin. The protective properties of the oil are also expressed in its moisturizing effect. An hour after its application, the maximum moisturizing and protective effect is achieved, which lasts for 8 hours, protecting the skin from the effects of many aggressive external factors. In addition, shea butter effectively eliminates dryness and irritation of the skin, saturates it with vitamins and prevents early aging.
