Shea Butter Bulk CAS 91080-23-8 Shea Butter Raw Material

Product Description

Shea butter is a fat extracted from the nut of the African shea tree (Vitellaria paradoxa or Butyrospermum parkii) which is native in the dry savannah belt of West and Central Africa. The oil-rich Shea nuts are surrounded by thin, nutritious pulp. Shea tree is a traditional African food plant bearing fruit from the age of 10 up to 200 years. The average dry seed yield per tree is 8 kg. Our shea butter are being made into creams, lotions, soaps and other products at our factory. It is also known as "women's gold," which has been used for ages as a natural beauty balm because it moisturizes, soothes and protects the skin.

Description:
Pure natural green plant-derived solid oil can promote epidermal cell regeneration and provide skin nutrition. Shea butter, also known as shea butter, is available in three colors: ivory white, beige and yellow. The darker the color, the better the effect. Shea nuts are widely distributed in Guinea, Africa and other places. Its fruits can be eaten, and the kernels are used to produce shea butter. Shea butter is close to the various indicators of human sebum secretion. It contains rich non-saponifiable ingredients, is easily absorbed by the human body, can prevent dryness and cracking, and further restore and maintain the natural elasticity of the skin. It can also play an anti-inflammatory role.

Function:

1. Glabridin has depigmentation and lightening properties. It inhibits the production of melanin, the 

pigment responsible for the colouring of the skin; 
2. Studies have show positive effects in fields like LDL(low-density lipoprotein ) protection against oxidation; 
3. Glabridin inhibits the inflammatory reaction by blocking cyclooxygenase and preventing the

 formation of free radicals such as superoxide anions; 
4. At the same time Glabridin prevent rough skin and also has anti inflammatory, antibacterial effect;
