WHAT DOES THE VITAMIN E IN SHEA BUTTER DO?


Vitamin E is a powerfully regenerative, fat-soluble antioxidant found in various plants around the world. It can be ingested as well as applied topically, which is our favorite way to use it. When applied to the skin, vitamin E helps in a number of ways, not the least of which being the prevention and softening of wrinkles and fine lines, as well as providing relief from dryness. You can find plain vitamin E oil almost everywhere, but why not get it in a more holistic and synergistic form?

Raw African Shea butter contains vitamin E, and because it also contains vitamin A and vitamin C, the three antioxidant vitamins actually work together to increase the overall efficacy of each vitamin. This means that all of the anti aging and skin regenerating and protective qualities of the vitamin E present in Shea butter are not only protected and preserved within the butter, but also enhanced and made more potent. Additionally, these vitamins work together to act as natural preservatives within the Shea butter, which increases the longevity and overall stability of the product.

Vitamin E helps to slow the signs of aging, and brings the softness back into a rough and leathery complexion. It helps to lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and actually helps to mitigate the damaging affects of photo aging, which include dark spots and sagging skin. Vitamin E also assists the skin in retaining its precious moisture, which is essential to keeping a plump and gorgeously smooth complexion. And because all of these anti aging and skin rejuvenating effects are optimized by the vitamin A and C in the Shea butter as well, the results from the vitamin E found in Shea are greater and made more potent than if the vitamin E was used alone.

This makes Shea butter a perfect source for anti aging vitamin E and vitamins A and C, since all three work together to optimize their collective healing affects. This is multidimensional skin care at its finest, since you only need one thing to achieve multiple results. Using Shea butter as a vitamin E cream is an intelligent and easy way to soften wrinkles and fine lines, soften the skin, and protect against further aging of the face. It’s effective, simple, and works, which is everything you could ask for from high quality Shea butter skincare.
