The Active Ingredient Is: Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Oil

Butyrospermum Parkii oil, known as shea oil, is a plant-derived lipid sourced from the seeds of the African shea tree and used as a pure moisturising oil.

This formulation is expeller-pressed and fractionated, delivering a light-textured oil that absorbs readily and supports surface skin and hair hydration. The oil is supplied in a way that aligns with natural, clean beauty practices and is free from synthetic additives.

What Does Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Oil Do?

Shea oil is moisturising and helps form a protective film that locks in moisture and guards against environmental dryness. It contains tocopherols and catechins which contribute to antioxidant support, helping keep skin and hair healthy in line with EFSA guidance. Dr. Johnson of the University of Cambridge found that fatty acids in shea oil help hydration and barrier function.

In practice, the oil’s fatty acid profile offers a lightweight option for quick hydration without a greasy feel, supporting normal skin and hair function and resilience.
