Shea Nut Oil is a by-product of shea nut butter, extracted from the nuts of the Karite tree. It is produced by lightly heating shea nut butter to separate the fractionated and non-fractionated make up of the material. The fractionated material is then fully refined, resulting in a transparent pale yellow colored oil. Shea Nut Oil is a natural emollient that is easily absorbed into the skin promoting skin elasticity without leaving a greasy feeling. This oil contains a high level of Vitamins A, E, F and oleic fatty acid and may help calm skin irritations. Shea Nut Oil is favorable for massage therapists.
