What it is: A natural plant butter used to nourish dry skin.
The special
Shea butter is rich in unsaturated fatty acids and vitamins and moisturizes the skin. Jislaine's shea butter has not been refined, but is 100% natural and has therefore retained its characteristic nutty smell. It is water-free and therefore an ideal protection against the cold in winter.
Result
Shea butter makes dry and rough skin velvety soft again from the first application. Unrefined shea butter has a whitish-yellow color and has a solid consistency at temperatures below 28° C. However, it can be easily spread on the skin after briefly warming it in the palms of your hands.
scope of application
In Africa, it is traditionally used for skin care, especially for dry, flaky or heavily stressed skin areas such as rough elbows or cracked heels, to prevent and reverse stretch marks and for baby care.
The organic shea butter can be used as a face cream, body butter, lip balm, hair conditioner and treatment – pure or mixed with other ingredients.

What is the difference to the gold shea butter?
The gold shea butter is cold-pressed, which means that the shea nuts are mechanically pressed to obtain the oil. Our organic shea butter, on the other hand, is produced using traditional African methods. This means that the shea nuts are roasted. The roasted nuts are mashed with water to form a mass, which is then heated. The oil settles on top and is skimmed off. When it cools, the oil then takes on the solid consistency of shea butter.
Both products are unrefined quality.
The gold shea butter is more yellow than the organic shea butter. It is a little firmer when applied. The gold shea butter has a more intense scent than the organic shea butter. It smells pleasantly of white chocolate. The organic shea butter has a more subtle scent, but in comparison has a slightly smoky note.
Are the shea nuts the subspecies Paradoxa or Nilotica?
Both shea butters from Jislaine are made from the Paradoxa variety and are therefore a bit firmer in consistency.
