It has been a while since I have sung the praises of evanhealy skincare products, but as I reached for my evanhealy Whipped Shea Butter with Olive Leaf– it occurred to me that I had yet to share this luxurious Shea Butter treasure with you.
If you love Shea Butter, then this is whipped version will leave you deliriously happy– as it does for me each time that I use it. It is far more user friendly than the traditional Shea Butters that I have used since the whipped texture makes it feather light, and it absorbs more readily.
You simply warm a small amount between your hands and massage it anywhere you need added moisture and hydration, and the effects are miraculously fast. It has a warm and subtle scent that might be likened to the smell of cocoa butter, and as delectable as it smells it does fade so as not to interfere with any fragrances that you may be wearing.
It leaves skin hydrated, soft, supple, nourished and luminous. You can use it from head to toe, but if you have very dry skin you may find this the perfect facial moisturizer. If you have dry curly hair, this does wonders to nourish distressed tresses!
According to evanhealy,A finger-tip sized amount applied daily to clean skin rejuvinates and protects extremely dry and dehydrated skin, having a remarkable effect on wrinkles, softening and smoothing fine lines, wrinkles, all signs of stress held in our face and eye area. After a few days of consistent use skin appears noticeably improved. Our Whipped Shea Butter, rich in essential fatty acids, cinnamic acid, and vitamins C, E, and K, heals dry, sensitive skin conditions while providing maximum barrier protection without a heavy feeling or clogging tiny dermal pores. It is especially effective when treating red/angry skin conditions.
Our Whipped Shea Butters are a combination of luscious and nourishing oils: California- grown extra-virgin olive oil, calendula-infused sunflower oil, and a Madagascar vanilla- infused coconut oil. These restorative and concentrated butters are prepared by hand in small batches. Over a period of four to six hours we slowly add each oil into the raw unrefined shea butter as it gently and continuously whips. At the end, we add the flower remedies of Self Heal and Crab Apple.
evanhealy and Social Objectives:
Our Shea Butter comes to us from the Tapko Widows Group, a small community of women in northern Ghana. This remarkable group of women hand-harvest and process the shea nuts into shea butter using labor-intensive, traditional methods that have been handed down over centuries. The Tapko Widows are paid a premium price and a percentage of sales goes to a micro-credit project in their support, complementing their subsistence agriculture-based economy. Tapko is a small village located near the Burkina Faso border in Ghana's Upper West Region.
We make our Whipped Shea Butter in house and by hand, it takes four to six hours of continual whipping to reach its rich, creamy, fragrant softness. The ultimate protection for sensitive and dry skin.
Chemical Free and Unrefined:
This truly unrefined product has been extracted without chemical solvents, cleansers or bleaching agents. As a result small granules may occur, which in no way compromises its quality, and will dissolve instantly when massaged into skin. Variations in color and fragrance may also occur. Unrefined shea butter is high in valuable unsaponifiables, which add emolliency and softness to skin. Vitamin E protects against oxidation, and naturally occuring phytosterols contribute to cell membrane integrity.
Suggested Use:
As a daytime moisturizer: "Taking a finger-full of Shea Butter warm and soften between the palms of your hand. Massage into area of face or body to be treated. Finish by misting with of one of our Facial Tonic Hydrosols to increase hydration and penetration."
As a Shea Treatment Mask: "An alternative to our Clay Treatment Masks, our Whipped Shea Butters make ideal regenerating, nourishing and restorative treatments for dry and/or sensitive skin in need of rebuilding from over-use or over-reliance on harsh glycolic (AHA) treatments, fruit enzymes, or dermabrasions; it also makes a great hair conditioner!"
