natural shea body butter

Benefits
We're very pleased to announce this addition to our Body Butter section. Yoruba, Natural Shea Body Butter is a simple mix of pure organic and unrefined shea butter, organic virgin evening primrose oil, kukui nut oil, and a small amount of Vitamin E.

This formula is over 98% organic and fairly traded with no preservatives. Not to mention the incredible benefits shea butter and primrose oil have for your skin.

Used for centuries throughout sub-Saharan & Western Africa, shea butter and the shea nut continue to play a vital role in economics, culture, and religion. Harvested in the traditional way, our shea butter supports several community projects that strive to maintain traditions and support economic development.

Shea is high in naturally occurring vitamin E and has been used to treat such skin conditions as eczema, psoriasis, minor inflamations, scratches, sun burns and just simply dry skin. As our shea is unrefined, it maintains all the benefits including vitamins, and essential fats that are inherent to the shea nut.

Evening primrose oil has been used since the 1930s for eczema (a condition in which the skin becomes inflamed, itchy, or scaly because of allergies or other irritation).

All parts of the evening primrose plant are safe to eat. The roots can be boiled and eaten like parsnips. The seeds were once roasted and used as a coffee substitute when food rationing was in effect during World War II.
