Using only the best from Mother Earth
Shea butter has been used for centuries in Africa for cooking, and also as skin treatment for its amazing ability to renew, repair and protect the skin against harsh climates. African healers and beauties like Cleopatra have known about Shea butter for thousands of years.
People buy refined Shea butter because it doesn't have the natural Shea scent not realizing it has reduced beneficial properties. Unrefined ivory Shea has a milder aroma and a more creamy silky feel and has all its wonderful qualities still intact.
The Origin of Shea Butter is from the nut of the Shea Tree, also known as “The Tree of Life". The Shea tree only grows in the Savannah region of Africa. It grows up to 60 feet and can live up to 200 years.
The Shea Tree produces its fruits once a year. The pit in the center of the fruit when crushed and traditionally processed by boiling and extracting the oil is what yields the vegetable fat known as Shea Butter.
Unrefined Shea Butter is traditional Shea butter in its raw and all natural state, with nothing added. It has a soft sometimes grainy texture, ivory to light yellow ,bright yellow or dark brown in color, and has a mild nutty scent which will fade away within minutes once applied to skin or hair. Unrefined Shea butter is the most effective type of shea butter because the healing and moisturizing properties are intact, undiluted and unaltered.
Tamanu Oil is indigenous to tropical Southeast Asia; it is found in Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Malaysia, South India, Sri Lanka, and the Melanesian and Polynesian islands.
The tree blooms twice annually with fragrant, white flowers, which later yield clusters of yellow-skinned nut-containing fruits, from which the oil is extracted.
Most importantly Tamanu oil possesses a unique capacity to promote the formation of new tissue, thereby accelerating wound healing and the growth of healthy skin. This oil fades stretch marks with incredible results, and makes scars look less unsightly. It is used by Polynesian women for promoting healthy and blemish-free skin, and is also used on babies to prevent diaper rash and skin eruptions

well it is actually a wax ester from the seed of the jojoba shrub. The plant is native to Arizona, California & Northwestern Mexico. It is reported to have similar properties to our skin & hair. It soothes, and restores elasticity to any dry skin area while conditioning and softening the skin. Use it on skin, nails, body, hair, make up remover...Does not evaporate so it provides moisture for extended periods and has a long shelf life.

Virgin Organic Coconut oil is known as the Tree of life in India. Coconuts have a unique kind of fat you’ll find in less than a half-dozen foods anywhere in the world. They’re called medium chain fatty acids (MCTs).
These fats – capric acid and lauric acid – are very rare. They are only found in human breast milk, cow and
goat’s milk, and coconut and palm kernel oils (which is not the same as palm oil).will not only bring temporary relief to the skin, but it will aid in healing and repairing and will penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and strengthen the underlying tissues. And it is a very healthy part of your diet.
The MCTs in coconut oil, by comparison, react naturally with your skin to keep it hydrated and firm. They increase your acid mantle and keep your skin protein intact. One study showed that MCTs significantly increased skin hydration compared to drugs and other mixtures.MCT fatty acids also gently dissolve dead
skin cells, leaving behind a fresher, more even complexion. This will prevent wrinkles from forming and will help to soften wrinkles that are already present. * Ageless Beauty 10/13/11
