Key ingredients
Shea butter
Shea butter is one of the best choices for dry, irritated skin. It has soothing anti-inflammatory properties and helps to restore a damaged skin barrier, reducing moisture loss from the skin.
Cocoa butter
Cocoa Butter is rich inessential fatty acids and antioxidants. It forms a protective layer on the skin which locks in moisture. Raw cocoa butter has a natural chocolate aroma.
Beeswax
Beeswax forms a protective barrier on the skin that protects against environmental damage, while also holding in moisture and reducing dryness.
