farfalla Organic Shea Butter

Organic shea butter is well known to care for stressed and chapped skin. The soothing organic butter moisturises and supports moisture retention. In addition, it boosts elasticity and suppleness. Therefore, the organic shea butter is very versatile and can be used for homemade cosmetics such as DIY body butter, lip balms or baby salves.

Application:

• Mix with a care oil using a ratio of 60:40 to create a creamy consistency. Shea butter is neutral in scent and serves as a protective balm for chapped hand and lips or as a base for ointments (use as a 50:50 mixed ratio with organic care oil) and use essential oils to add scent.
• Regenerating Lip Balm: Gently heat 3 g of Jojoba Oil in a water bath. Add 7 g of organic shea butter, then remove from the water bath to melt. Do not overheat. Stir well to ensure a good consistency is formed, then let the mixture cool briefly. Add 2 g of sea buckthorn oil and 1 drop of lemon balm essential oil (10%) and pour into a saucepan (use about 15 ml). Finally, allow to cool before use.
• Protective Baby Balm: Gently heat 75 ml of organic shea butter in a glass and place in a water bath until melted. Add 25 ml of organic argan oil (contributes to strengthening the skin) and stir with a toothpick or wooden spoon until a uniform mixture is formed. Allow to cool. Add 1-2 drops of lavender essential oil (soothes the skin as well as troubled minds) or rose oil, mix well and allow to cool.
