Shea Butter
INCI: Butyrospermum Parkii Fruit
A true natural treasure from Africa, shea butter has multiple benefits. Used for centuries for its exceptional properties on skin and hair, its composition rich in fatty acids and vitamins makes it a choice ingredient in any natural and effective skincare routine.
- Active ingredients of Shea: Shea butter is rich in oleic acid, stearic acid, essential fatty acid (linoleic acid), phytosterols with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, and vitamins A and E. These components give it exceptional moisturizing, nourishing, regenerating, healing, and protective properties for the beauty of skin and hair. Thanks to its rich and creamy texture, shea butter is easily absorbed by the skin, leaving it soft, supple, and perfectly moisturized. Another positive aspect is that it forms a protective barrier that helps prevent dehydration and protects the skin from external aggressions such as wind, cold, or sun.
- Thanks to its exceptional properties, shea butter is perfect for preserving natural moisture and intensely nourishing dry skin on the face and lips. It penetrates deep into the epidermis, providing a soothing, healing, and regenerating effect. It helps restore the natural skin barrier while leaving the skin soft, supple, and radiant.
- To reduce stretch marks on the body: Shea butter is renowned for its regenerative and healing properties, making it an effective treatment for reducing the appearance of stretch marks on the body. By regularly massaging the affected areas with shea butter, you can improve skin elasticity, stimulate collagen production, and reduce the visibility of stretch marks. It is particularly ideal for all expectant mothers to prevent stretch marks. It can be safely used undiluted during pregnancy.
- To reduce wrinkle depth: Thanks to its anti-aging properties and vitamin content, shea butter can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. By improving skin elasticity, it helps smooth and firm the skin, for a more youthful and radiant complexion. Applied regularly, it helps prevent skin aging and maintain its youthfulness and vitality. It also creates a protective barrier against external aggressions and oxidative stress, which are responsible for premature aging.
In short, shea butter is a true plant-based treasure, offering a multitude of benefits for skin and hair. Whether it is to calm irritation, soothe sunburn, reduce stretch marks, or prevent the first signs of wrinkles, it is a natural and effective choice for daily self-care.

The polyunsaturated fatty acids and vitamins in rosehip oil accelerate cell regeneration, reduce stretch marks and scars, as well as dark spots.

This tissue regenerating property makes it ideal for burns and sunburn. This vegetable oil is also effective against certain dermatological problems: acne, rosacea, eczema, and psoriasis.

- Rashes.
- Erythema.
- Itching and eczema.
- Dry skin.

Emollients are substances that have the ability to soften and moisturize the skin to reduce symptoms such as itching and scaling. Although available in many forms, colloidal oatmeal stands out for its suitability for all skin types.
That said, studies suggest that this type of oatmeal is also useful for combating the symptoms of xerosis, or excessively dry skin. Generally, it is considered safe, well-tolerated, and can reduce the dependence on corticosteroids and their potential adverse effects.
Of course, it is important to note that this is not a first-line treatment for skin conditions. In cases of burns, acne, and dermatitis, it is essential to consult a dermatologist for other treatment options. Oatmeal is generally used as an adjuvant to soothe discomfort.
