Oh Shea can you see….

I LOVE Shea Butter. It has to be the ultimate in lotion! I had only just heard of Shea Butter a few months before becoming a rep. for Jordan Essentials and had been buying my Shea at a major mall store. I’ll be honest, I didn’t think it was all that great from the mall store, as my skin would only be soft and moisturized-looking for a short period of time. I just labeled myself as the dry skin girl that no lotion could fix. I just settled with what I had, it was sold in a major mall store after all–so it HAD to be good and it HAD to be just me with the problem.

I then tried Jordan Essentials Satin Shea Body Butter in October of 2004 and have never looked back. Jordan Essential’s Shea Butter’s main ingredient is Shea Butter. That might sound like it should be obvious, but have you checked the labels on your beauty products lately? Many products say they are shea butter, but shea butter is way down the ingredient list on the label. The way it works is that the further down the label an ingredient is listed, the less there is of it in the product.

Their does not contain mineral oil or petroleum, so it is silky smooth, not greasy at all. It doesn’t contain any harsh drying alcohols either.

Shea Butter helps cell regeneration and capillary circulation. This favors the healing of small wounds, skin cracks and crevices, and skin ulcers. In the cosmetic field, this property is an asset against skin aging. It has restructuring effects on the epidermis, also on dry and fragile hair.

Due to it’s natural high content of fats, fatty acids, vitamins A, E and F) and other active ingredients; it’s no wonder it has been used for centuries for skin care.

Shea is used to moisturize severely dry skin. It heals and smooths itchy dry skin, as well. It has an anti-elastase characteristic that makes it an excellent product to prevent and reduce wrinkles. It aids in the healing of stretch marks and helps heal and restore elasticity to the skin of burn victims. Shea Butter helps control eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis and skin discoloration; it helps heal bedsores on bedridden individuals.

Shea is so natural and gentle,it can be used on babies for moisturizing and diaper rash. It can also be used by nursing mothers.

Shea will add and maintain moisture to dry, brittle hair and will revitalize, repair, prevent breakage and split ends.

Shea applied after shaving or waxing will prevent irritation and give skin a smooth, silky look and feel.

I could go on an on about all the wonders of Shea Butter and it’s benefits, but you might just have to see for yourself.

Where to buy it: www.JordanEssentials.com and use rep. # 7227 upon checkout.

    so many products now have shea butter- i wish companies would come up with a different marketing angle. shea as an ingredient is not so exciting anymore
