What is Shea Moisture Body Butter?
Shea butter is a natural emollient derived from the African shea tree nut. It is a popular ingredient in skincare and cleansing products.
However, by many people Shea butter is praised for its moisturizing properties, yet it finds itself in both soaps and lotions
While both may contain shea butter and boast moisturizing properties, they serve distinct purposes. Here’s a brief distinction to help you choose the best option for your needs.
Understanding the Difference
Shea butter soap
Shea butter soap is, first and foremost, a cleansing agent. It combines shea butter with saponified oils and fats to create a lather that removes dirt, oil, and impurities from the skin. The shea butter content in soap can offer some moisturizing benefits, but the primary function is cleansing.
Here are some key points to consider about shea butter soap:
- Suitable for daily use: Shea butter soap is gentle enough for most skin types and can be used daily on the face and body.
- Potential for dryness: While shea butter is moisturizing, the cleansing action of soap can sometimes be slightly drying. Look for soaps formulated with additional hydrating ingredients or follow up with a moisturizer.
- Creates a clean and refreshed feeling: It effectively removes impurities, leaving skin feeling clean and refreshed.
Shea Butter Lotion
On the other hand, shea butter lotion is made purely for hydration purposes. These Lotions typically contain a higher concentration of shea butter combined with water and other moisturizing ingredients. This eventually creates a richer, creamier formula that deeply nourishes and hydrates the skin.
Here’s what to know about shea butter lotion:
- Intense moisture: Lotions are ideal for dry, itchy, or cracked skin, providing long-lasting hydration.
- Slower absorption: Due to the higher oil content, shea butter lotions may take longer to absorb than lighter lotions.
- Targeted nourishment: Lotions can be used on areas that need extra moisture, such as elbows, knees, and hands.
Which one is better?
Ultimately, the Choice between shea butter soap and lotion depends on your specific needs. If you require a gentle cleanser with some moisturizing benefits, shea butter soap is a good option. However, for deep hydration and nourishment, shea butter lotion reigns supreme.
The good news is that you can now incorporate both products into your routine with Refresh Relays Shea Moisture Body Butter, which serves the purpose of both shea butter and soap for daily cleansing, followed up with shea butter lotion for long-lasting moisture.
Here are the five key benefits of Shea Moisture Body Butter that will have you reaching for this pot of goodness every single day.
