Seals in moisture for dry, cracked skin

NOW® 100% Natural Shea Butter has a rich, luxurious texture that penetrates deep to condition and moisturize every type of skin, regardless of tone or texture. As a natural derivative of the karite trees that grow in Western and Central Africa, Shea Butter is a wonderful emollient that's perfect for daily use. It has a warm, subtle aroma that is both light and pleasant, and works well on both light and dark complexions. NOW also carries Shea Butter Lotion. Suggested Usage: Gently apply NOW® 100% Natural Shea Butter as desired, paying close attention to dry or chapped areas.

This product will melt at high temperatures and become solid again when cool. This is natural and may affect the appearance, but will not harm the quality of the product. Since NOW® Shea Butter is 100% natural, it is normal for this product to become hard, appear granular-like or change color slightly over time. If hard, it can be softened by placing in a pan of hot water for 30 minutes or miowaved for a few seconds.

Caution for Microwaving: This jar contains a foil seal. Do not place this jar directly in microwave. Before microwaving scoop out desired amount and place in a microwave-safe container. Allow time to cool before applying.
