Nubian Heritage Shea Butter
This dry winter is creating havoc on my skin and hair, so this week I'll be featuring products that have helped me out in this area and hopefully they will work for you too! First up: for dry, cracked skin in need of serious hydration, I've been loving Nubian Heritage's Shea Butters. There are several variations to choose from, including the super natural and healthy Raw Shea Butter, but my current favorite is the Lavender & Wildflowers Infused Shea Butter.
The butter is thick, so you have to melt a bit of it in your hand before applying, and is especially good for elbows, knees, heels, hands and knuckles. You can even take a bit of the butter and mix it with your everyday lotion so you can apply it more easily to any part of your body.
Lavender has traditionally been used to treat all types of skin due to its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, rejuvenating, soothing and deodorizing effects. The line is formulated with 100% organic shea butter, lavender oil, wildflower essence and Vitamin E. That's it! And the smell is great, with hints of sweet flowers and refreshing herbs.
If your skin is in need of a great balm for dry problem areas, try this shea butter. It is 100% natural and 100% works!
Nubian Heritage Shea Butters can be purchased at Whole Foods or www.amazon.com for approximately $12.
