Exfoliating allows your freshest, most radiant skin to shine through.

Homemade Exfoliating Body Scrub:

1 cup of sugar (the finer the sugar the better)
A cup of virgin olive oil (no mineral oil because this will clog pores)
Lemon juice (optional)
Scented essential oils for a scent you desire (optional)

You can use this all over your body!!

By removing the top layer of dead epidermis cells, you will make your skin appear smoother and look younger. Exfoliating once or twice a week is usually enough to achieve silky skin; however, women with oily skin should exfoliate more often than those with dry skin.

One of the benefits exfoliation does, is by removing the dead skin cells, it makes it easier for your skin to absorb additional moisturizers. So, after exfoliating use Shea Moisture's Body Lotion to lock in the softness & moisturize your newly found baby soft skin

&& Let Your Skin Look It's Best!!

As the winter months approach us we tend to forget to drink water as much as we would in the summer. But, the next time you find yourself suffering from dry itchy skin, and chapped lips you just may be dehydrated.

For many of us drinking water in the winter is way harder to do better yet remember then in the warmer months.

In the winter it's just as important to stay hydrated because we experience a lot more dry conditions, because of the drop in humidity outside and all the heating systems inside.

Hydrate your body by drinking lots of water & hydrate you skin by using SheaMoisture!!

From the dreaded hat hair to static electricity, split ends to dry frizzies the winter weather is bad news for our hair. Its damaging effect in the cold season is at its worse because we usually don't take many precautions to protect our luscious locks.

You can use Shea Butter as a hair conditioner to revitalize dull, dry hair.

The day before shampooing, massage a dime size amount of Shea Butter into your hair especially the ends. Wrap your hair in a hot towel for about 10 to 15 minutes so the butter will absorb into your hair. If you have very dry hair you can wait 10 minutes after shampooing and apply a small amount of butter to add luster.

No one is perfect and neither is our skin. So if your having trouble here and there you're not the only one. So here are some tips that can make your skin look beautiful.

1. Reduce your Skin exposure
Sun damage doesn't have to wait for the age of 30 before you notice the harsh effects of sunlight on your skin. People who love to bask under the sun and spend whole days tanning on beaches can expect to have wrinkles and other unsightly spots on the skin as early as their 20s. But you do not have to worry too much about the bad effects of sunlight. If you can just apply sunscreen and other protective dermal products religiously everyday, then you can still enjoy the sun and thwart premature aging. Experts advise against going outdoors from 10am to 3pm because that is when ultraviolet rays are strongest. Accessories like sunglasses, gloves, caps and even umbrellas can go a long way in protecting you from too much exposure to the sun.

2. Flush Out Damage
Free radicals are what make your skin look older and sick. Even though, Free radicals is a natural process of your body you can greatly decrease the amount in your body. Simply need to avoid the things that feed them up. And it is important that you increase your intake of vitamins and minerals. Vitamins A, E, and C are known to be effective against free radicals. On top of these nutrients, you can also look at internal cleansing as a way to flush out free radicals and improve your skin.
Shea Moisture suggests, Organic Body Wash Raw Shea to promote healing and with its anti-aging properties and hydrating the skin.

Hair Care with Shea

Your hair is one of the first thing people see when they first meet you. So take care of it. Unkempt hair can tell a lot about you. Here are some easy and simple tips to have healthy beautiful hair.

Your hair is very fragile to treat it as such. Excessive washing and Blow drying can damage your hair a lot. Hair should only be washed enough to keep it clean. Mostly hair should be washed two to three times a week.

Here's how to wash correctly; rinse hair first with warm water to get out dirt and residue. Apply shampoo and give your head a gentle massage with your fingertips to stimulate the blood to your hair follicles. Contrary to popular belief one wash is enough to clean your hair. Make sure your conditioner is formulated for your hair type.

When your hair is wet it is very delicate. So if it's tangled you should use a wide toothcomb. Start at the ends and work your way up. Being harsh to your hair while its wet will give you split ends. Make sure your always delicate to your hair its fragile. SheaMoisture suggests, Organic Body wash Raw Shea Butter. Your skin is just as delicate as your hair treat it with Care.

For most women and men the perfect shave is unattainable leaving the person having irritated skin and razor bumps. The best way to shave for either sex is a wet shave.

Wet shaving is just what the term implies a keeping your face (or for women, their legs) wet with plenty of hot water before, and during, the entire shave. In fact, you should always shave after a hot shower, not before. This will open up your pores and skin and the blade will be more easily glide on your skin than dragging on your skin, which cause irritation and redness.

Wet shaving gives you a better-looking skin. Which is what we all strive for. The key to shaving is to keep your skin as wet as possible during the shaving process. You will marvel at how much your skin will look and feel better.

Shea Moisture Suggests, Organic Shave set for the man that wants to look his best.

Apple cider vinegar can improve your skin by also breaking down toxins in your skin. This evokes a healthier and smoother look on your skin's surface. Below are a few ways on how to apply vinegar to delight your skin!

1. Dilute the vinegar in water first.
2. Do not apply it directly to your skin since it can cause irritation.
3. Make sure that it is gentle on your skin.
4. Mix one part of vinegar with eight parts of water.
5. Apply gently on your skin.

Do not hesitate to apply these simple steps into your routine as you're around the kitchen. Sugar and spices do not only have to refer to your food. Your skin can be enriched with the smoothness and healthy surface that it deserves! Add a little vinegar and our Organic Body Wash African Black Soap to spice up your skin!

Shea Suits Both Sexes: Bump-free

Father's Day is steadily approaching, so why not show your father that you care with some healthy, useful advice accompanied with the products to make him feel good! Often before work or before the daily routines of the week begins, men often spend a few minutes of their time grooming themselves. This grooming process usually includes shaving, which can be very annoying if you don't see the results you wanted. Razor bumps and the occurrence of tiny hairs on the face can quickly become a nuisance. Listed below are a few tips just for your significant other, the males in your life and specifically the father you are catering to on this special day.

1. Let the cream sit on your face for a few minutes before you start shaving.
2. Avoid using 2, 3 and 4 blade razors. They only lift the hair and snap it back into place.
3. Before and after shaving, rinse your razor with rubbing alcohol.
4. Soften your hair by applying a soft, soaked warm towel on your face.
5. If you do happen to have ingrown hair, lift them with a needle, just before shaving.

~Treating Your Skin Effortlessly~

Many individuals with skin problems have questions on how to treat their skin. These questions may be answered by a dermatologist, the use of makeup to cover up acne or by the use of products that contain harmful chemicals for your skin. Instead of putting in such an effort to clear your skin, just let nature take its course. Here a few tips to treat your skin to get the natural look you're looking for!

1. Give yourself a dry brush exfoliation: The use of a soft, dry skin brush will eliminate dead skin cells and allow the skin to breathe.
2. Have a good balanced meal for a better digestive system: Good skin is a reflection of a good digestive system. We suggest that you add whole grains to your diet, drink more water and eat goods that contain high-fiber.
3. Be less passive and more active during your daily routines: One of the best things you can do for your skin is to be active! By sitting around at your desk all day or on the couch, you are inadvertently causing puffiness and more acne to your skin.
4. Avoid excess sugar: The consumption of excess sugar actually causes premature aging, causing your skin to produce wrinkles. By avoiding a certain amount of sugar, you are preventing your skin from aging.
5. Eat some good fats: Essential fatty acids are a necessity to the human body. They are particularly important to people who have eczema, acne and dry skin. These fats help clear up these conditions. We suggest adding walnut oil with vinegar as a salad dressing when eating an appetizer and also suggest consuming sardines.

Who knew that by changing your meal plans, moving around a little more around the house and eating good fats could prevent your skin from breaking out in acne or eczema. By incorporating these few activities in your daily routine, you are one step closer to having better looking skin! To further aid your process, we suggest that you use our Organic Body Lotion African Soap to help resolve your skin problems. The ingredients used in this lotion are meant to treat acne and eczema. Treat your skin effortlessly with our Shea Moisture product!

We want to share with you why we love Shea Butter and why it is so beneficial to you. Shea Butter has been used for many generations to protect and rejuvenate hair and skin. Shea butter is found only in the tropics of Africa. The fatty acid it contains gives shea butter its unique healing properties making it superior to other vegetable butters. Shea butter has a low melting point so it melts right into your skin when you put it on, making it easy to apply. The shea butter penetrates your skin easily allowing the skin to breathe and without clogging pores.
Shea Butter has an immense amount of benefits as well. It can relieve everything from dry skin to some minor dermatological diseases. You want to know just how? Well if you research it, you will find that Shea Butter contains Vitamins A, E and F. Vitamins A and E help maintain the skin and keep it clear and healthy, especially sun damaged skin. It has anti-aging benefits as well because it helps to prevent premature wrinkles and facial lines. The Vitamin F acts as a skin protector and rejuvenator making your rough, dry skin smooth and soft. Shea Butter also has a high level of cinnamic acid, a natural sun screen. Shea Moisture uses raw Shea Butter, which is recommended because it still contains all of the beneficial ingredients as opposed to processed Shea Butter.
Give Shea Moisture's Raw Shea Butter body lotion a try... your skin will thank you.
