How To Wisely Purchase Whipped Shea Butter

By Enid Hinton


Purchasing products that promise beauty or health benefits can be stressful. Many companies promise far more than their products deliver and others turn out to be absolute scams that deliver nothing that has been promised. When you decide to purchase whipped shea butter it is a good idea to research sources and product reviews.

The creams and oils from this nut have been used for centuries. There are multiple mentions in history dating back to Egyptian pharaohs including Cleopatra and her court. It was invaluable for preserving the soft smoothness of women's skin in the desert where extreme heat and winds cause dryness and coarse appearance. This oil treatment has lost none of its appeal over the centuries.

Beyond being an excellent face treatment there are many other benefits available to the consumer who purchases this product. Used for a body cream it will help with dry patchy skin and help heal cracked and bleeding feet. It helps with eczema and rosacea as well as easing the discomfort of rashes. It is reported to help ease the pain of arthritis and muscular aches and pains.

For facial issues it is known to remove fine lines and reduce wrinkling especially around the eyes and mouth. It works by reactivating collagen production and increasing natural elasticity to facial and neck areas. It can also replace the natural colors and tone to facial skin. Many people use it as a hair treatment that repairs split ends and eases dry itchy scalp. It will relax tightly curled hair and make it appear less frizzy and loose.

There are differences in end products dependent upon where the trees are located. Western Africa houses the trees in wilderness areas. The fruit from these trees produces a darker, coarser cream that is more aromatic than Eastern trees. The trees found in Eastern Africa were brought to the area and cultivated for their fruit. They produce a sweeter smelling nutty aroma and the creams from them are silkier and more easily applied and absorbed by the skin.

Choosing between refined and unrefined product may take some research time. Most manufacturers do not publish the differences between the two. The refining process is known to remove all color and natural aroma from the cream. It can also remove most beneficial components involved. The unrefined creams are ivory in color and have a faint sweet nutty aroma. All of the beneficial elements of the tree and nut are still present in unrefined creams.

Looking online you will find hundreds of resources to provide this product. You will also find it at retail outlets locally. Beauty supply houses carry it but if you are purchasing large amounts you can find wholesale dealers online. Some companies do not ship this item in the summer months because extreme heat will cause it to melt and separate causing a coarseness in the texture.

As an anti aging cream or for general use around the home you may find that this cream is well worth the money you have invested in it whether you buy it locally or order from the internet.
