Dry And Itchy Scalp - Why Does The Scalp Become Dry And Itchy And How Can It Be Treated?

We begin our lives with perfectly, flake and itch free scalps, that is how our scalp is meant to be, however, due to elements of our lifestyles, we find that the scalp can become affected. This is often in the form of a dry and itchy scalp.


Organic or Natural Skin Care Products - what's the difference?

Today more and more people are becoming aware of the benefits nature has to offer and are seeking environmentally friendly products in their homes and in their skin care regimen. Therefore, it is no surprise that skin care manufacturers are catering to this wave of eco-friendly consumers and labeling products natural and/or organic.


Shea Butter: Nature's Own Anti-Ageing Skincare Ingredient

There are lots of skincare products on the market that promise to keep skin youthful, but have you looked closely at their lists of ingredients? Some of them read like the contents of a chemistry laboratory.Ò Ò Ò 

A truly natural ingredient

If you prefer to treat your skin with 100% natural ingredients, Shea Butter is definitely one you should consider. This creamy, oil-rich substance is obtained from the nut-like seeds of a tree that grows wild in the Savannah belt of Africa. Because the trees are not cultivated in large plantations (although they are protected by the women who use them as a source of income) their fruits and seeds are organic and they have no adverse effects on their environment.

Furthermore, if you want to be sure of using the best quality Shea Butter, with no risk of it containing chemical residues, always choose Unrefined Shea Butter that has been carefully extracted using traditional, environmentally-friendly methods. Few other skincare ingredients can claim to be so natural!

Can Shea Butter compete with the latest anti-ageing miracle creams?

It"s natural, but does it work? Nothing can stop us getting older, but keeping skin moisturised, nourished and protected is the best way to minimize the effects of time. Scientific analysis shows that Unrefined Shea Butter has a unique blend of essential fatty acids, vitamins (including A and E), and antioxidants that all actively promote healthy skin. It also contains lupeol, which inhibits enzymes that can damage skin proteins, and cinnamic acid, which acts as a mild sunscreen.

Shea Butter can be used from scalp to toes, is safe on fragile or sensitive skin, and is especially useful in treating these tell-tale signs of ageing skin:

Dryness

Less sebum is produced as skin ages. Without the protection of this natural oil, moisture is lost from the skin more easily and it can quickly become dehydrated. Shea Butter is an excellent moisturiser. Its light texture allows it to sink easily into the skin leaving it soft and smooth.

Fine lines and wrinkles

Lines and wrinkles form as the production of collagen and elastin in the skin slows down leaving it weaker and less supple. At the same time, the supporting layer of fat beneath the skin becomes thinner allowing skin to sag. Unrefined Shea butter has been proven to stimulate skin cell regeneration and improve the skin"s elasticity, while its moisturising action helps to keep skin plump.

Slow healing

Cuts, grazes and bruises on mature skin tend to take longer to heal than those on young skin, but Shea Butter"s anti-inflammatory properties support the skin"s natural healing systems. It also soothes soreness and calms irritated or itchy skin.Ò 

Using natural Unrefined Shea Butter won"t turn back the clock, but it will keep your skin looking and feeling wonderful: whatever your age!
