As discussed in the last post on shea butter, i think it will be great to go into one of its benefits; GREAT SKIN CARE PRODUCT
So here goes,,,

SOFTER SKIN: Shea butter is hard to use on its own but you can mix with your favourite lotions and oils/pomades and it will work great. After just a month, i have noticed silkier skin (even on my palms, and i don't scrub).
Also, the complexion is more defined and uniform, as compared to before. I do not use it on my face though, as it is quite creamy and rich and I have oily face. A good plan would to mix a small portion with your night cream then cleanse in the morning if you really have to use on the face.
When used straight, it makes excellent lip balm ( although i mix mine with some Vaseline and honey (to taste - just a drop). It also soften rough heels, and l mean grater rough feet. And also rough knees and elbows.
It also works well on scars, and may eliminate them  For more traumatic scars, it helps make the skin softer hence helping the scar blend in with the surrounding skin  
It works also well for cuts and abrassions and some minor burns, preventing blistering and scarring. 
Many ladies use it for stretch marks. It will definatelly reduce their appearance and when used during pregnancy, it may help prevent them completely . Just massage the butter with a good carrier oil like olive oil and massage on the belly and thighs (and breasts too..they also get their own uplifts during pregnancy)

On the hair,,,

It acts as a good sealant after conditioning/treatment and makes hair really smooth. You can mix with your favourite oils to make it easier to use.
It is also soothing to the scalp, sort of relaxes and cools it when it feels like scales. With all the vitamin E am sure it does a lot to promote. a healthy scalp.
There are many benefits to using raw shea butter so do not hesitate to grab some. If you would like, just check out this link for some awesome shea products
