Shea butter: Deep Moisturization and Protection

SHEA BUTTER, A PRECIOUS NOURISHING & ANTI-FRIZZ CONCENTRATE

Thanks to its high concentration of Omega 3 and antioxidants, it acts on both the fiber and the scalp to restore comfort. 100% natural origin, certified organic, this Ecocert Fair For Life-certified supply continues the ethical approach to which René Furterer has been committed for over 15 years. Shea Butter provides deep hydration to restore softness and suppleness to dry to very dry hair.

Is Shea butter better than other hair care ingredients? 

In short: yes. The reasons for Shea Butter's success can be summed up in three words: texture, composition and properties. To the touch, shea butter is a treasure trove of sensoriality: creamy, easy to apply, especially on very thick hair, it has found its place in many hair care products for dry hair because it knows how to make them irresistible, dense and rich.

It's in its composition that Shea Butter really makes the difference: with almost 10% unsaponifiables (that insoluble, non-transformable part which retains the most interesting active ingredients), it crushes the competition, which is generally around 1%. From vitamins A and E (antioxidants) to Karitene (UV protection) and triterpene alcohols (anti-inflammatories), Shea Butter is packed with molecules with scientifically proven benefits. Essential fatty acids, which are indispensable to skin function and impossible for humans to synthesize, are also present in large quantities in the butter, justifying its nutritional value. 

What are the benefits of Shea butter for dry hair?

In addition to its enormous qualities, Shea Butter also stands out from oils for its ease of application, its ability to protect and wrap the hair fiber in a nourishing lipidic film, and its covering effect, which helps limit perspiration and thus dry hair. Contrary to popular belief, Shea Butter doesn't make hair grow faster, but it does help to deeply moisturize it and protect it from external aggression, and that's already a lot!
