ORGANIC SHEA BUTTER
Organic Shea Butter (Vitellaria Paradoxa)
Shea Butter is a fat extracted from the nut of the African Shea tree, also known as “Tree of Life”. Shea butter has been nicknamed “Mother Nature’s Conditioner” for its exceptional moisturizing and nourishing properties. Rich in vitamins A and E and fatty acids, it penetrates deeply and is absorbed rapidly into the epidermis, leaving a smooth, satiny finish. It is an excellent emollient for treating dry, irritated and cracked skin.
Dogs often make skin problems worse by scratching, biting, and licking irritated areas. The soothing properties of Shea butter that work wonders for human skin also heal and prevent irritation in dog’s problem skin, while enhancing new cell regeneration. Shea butter soothes, softens, and hydrates skin. In addition, Shea butter may offer some sun protection, offering additional benefit for the health and well-being of your dog.
