Shea Butter:

Shea butter is an excellent product for skin and it is non-comedogenic, which means that it won’t clog your pores. Here are some of the amazing ways that shea butter can benefit your skin:

1. Eczema

Eczema is a skin condition where the skin becomes irritated or inflamed. The healing and moisturizing properties of shea butter make an excellent topical treatment for eczema. It can be applied liberally to the affected area daily. The anti-inflammatory properties provide needed relief and the nutrients in shea butter help promote healthy skin cell re-growth.
You can also use a combination of shea butter and essential oils for eczema: Add 10-12 drops of your favorite eczema essential oils such as lavender or frankincense to every 1 ounce (30 ml) of raw, unrefined shea butter.

2. Stretch marks

Stretch marks often occur during pregnancy but can occur after rapid weight gain. Shea butter helps to smooth the skin and keep it hydrated naturally. Research into shea butter has shown that it can help boost collagen production, thus reducing the appearance of stretch marks.⁵

3. Reduce appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

The collagen boosting properties of shea butter also make it an excellent product to help reduce the appearance of aging. As we age, our bodies produce less collagen and the skin loses some of its elasticity resulting in crepey wrinkly skin. Environmental factors like pollution, sun damage, and extreme temperatures can also affect the appearance of aging in the skin.

Shea butter also provides essential moisturizing for the skin which helps the skin to look smoother and healthier. One study showed that shea butter visibly reduced the signs of aging in the participants.⁵

4. Dry Skin

The moisturizing effects of shea butter make it the perfect moisturizer, especially if you need deep moisturizing. You can rub some shea butter onto dry and cracked heels and hands. This also provides a protective layer to the skin and prevents the affected areas from becoming inflamed.

5. Chapped lips

Dry or chapped lips can be painful and unattractive. If you suffer from chapped lips during cold weather, then you’ll be glad to know that shea butter is one of the best natural remedies for chapped lips.
Shea butter is emollient, which means it can soften or soothe the skin, and can be used to heal chapped lips. The emollient properties of shea butter act as a protective barrier by supplying and retaining moisture in the lips and skin.
You can easily make a lip balm from shea butter: melt 2 tablespoons each of shea butter and coconut oil and 1 tablespoon of beeswax over a double boiler on low heat and mix well. Pour the mixture into a small glass container and let it cool. The consistency will be medium firm. If you prefer a firmer consistency, you can add more beeswax, and vice versa.

Vitamins A and E and the collagen boosting properties of shea butter make it an excellent natural product to help wound heal and reduce the appearance of scars. The journal Wounds published a study on how the properties of shea butter can help to reduce the formation of scar tissue.⁶

Cocoa Butter:

1. Nourishes and Hydrates
Cocoa butter is highly absorbable and perfect for all skin types, which makes it the perfect source of hydration for dull, dry, and tired looking skin. It’s rich and silky texture and light luxurious fragrance makes skin feel nourished and moisturized, feeding skin tissue with healthy fats and plenty of powerful antioxidants.
It can also be melted down and mixed with essential oils to make a powerful and fragrant source of skin nutrition that can be applied all over the body.
2. Decreases Visible Signs of Aging
Some studies have found that the polyphenols, which are powerful antioxidants that are found in cocoa butter, help to prevent skin degeneration, wrinkles, fine lines, pigmentation, and sagging.
Environmental pollution, the sun’s UV rays, and daily exposure to chemicals cause oxidative stress on a cellular level, which these powerful antioxidants help to prevent. Polyphenols have also been shown to promote collagen production, which is the main structural protein found in the skin that maintains elasticity and youthful looking skin.
3. Prevents Chapped Lips
Cocoa butter is an emollient, which means that it helps to soothe, soften and protect delicate skin tissue. This makes it the perfect product to use as a natural lip balm and can be combined with other fragrances and essential oils to make a rich combination for keeping lips smooth and protected, even in extreme temperatures.

Mango Butter:

Like cocoa butter or shea butter, mango butter is a common product for the skin. It’s easy to see why, as each of these is smooth and creamy, often helping to cool down and moisturize the skin.
But, each type also has a unique chemical composition, resulting in different properties. For example, shea butter is rich in vitamin A, while cocoa butter has large quantities of fat (3).
Mango butter has also been promoted as a good alternative to cocoa butter, with research suggesting that it may offer some advantages (4). Some specific benefits of mango butter include the following:

Soothing. Mango butter is good for soothing the skin and can help to calm down the stinging and itching of bites and rashes as well.

Decreases dryness. Mango butter is naturally moisturizing, making it perfect for dry skin. Some recipes even use this advantage to help with dry lips.

Promotes youthful appearance. The vitamin A in mango butter can make the skin seem more youthful, potentially reducing the appearance of wrinkles as well.

Firms the skin. The vitamin C present can help to plump up the skin somewhat, also making it appear firmer.

Environmental protection. Mango butter may play a role in sun protection. The impact is relatively minor, so you can’t entirely rely on it. Still, it is a useful benefit.

Anti-aging. The antioxidants in mango butter may help to fight aging and some of the associated symptoms

Skin repair. Some research suggests that mango butter may help with skin repair, particularly the cracked and worn skin that is commonly seen on feet (5).

In most cases, you would use mango butter as part of a recipe, as this is more practical. However, the butter can also be used on its own if that is your preference. (https://nutritionyoucanuse.com/mango-butter-skin-benefits)

Irish Moss:

           Irish moss is also known as a skin softener and protector, which works by keeping the skin nourished by maintaining its natural hydration level. Irish moss also helps the skin to heal faster from various issues like psoriasis, rashes, sunburns, and eczema.

• Skin Health: Irish moss is most often found in skin creams and cleansers. The many essential vitamins obtained from Irish moss, especially vitamin A, vitamin E and vitamin K, have superb effects on the skin. Irish moss products can help to soften the skin, reduce wrinkles and treat skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.
•  
• Anti-Viral: Irish moss is believed by many to be an effective anti-viral. It has been used to treat many symptoms of the common cold, influenza, and the mumps virus.
•  
•  Antioxidants: Irish moss contains several antioxidants that may be helpful in preventing free radical damage in the body and lessening the risk of many types of cancer and disease. These antioxidants include the powerful vitamins A, E and K.

Beeswax:

          Protectant

Acting as a surfactant, beeswax, when blended into cold creams and other skin lotions, forms a protective barrier on the surface of the skin. This barrier, according to Koster Keunan, a global organic wax supplier, provides a film of protection against irritants while still allowing the skin to breathe.

This barrier may also aid in protecting the tender skin on your lips. The Mayo Clinic recommends using a lip balm that contains beeswax during cold weather to reduce your chances of developing chapped lips.

Skin Healer

In its natural state, beeswax is firm but pliable. Melted and combined with other ingredients, beeswax adds body to skin care products, making creams thicker. Like other beehive products, including honey and royal jelly, beeswax offers anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiviral benefits, according to the magazine, Delicious Living, making it potentially beneficial for treating minor skin irritations.

Skin Softener

Dry, rough skin may benefit from creams, lotions or soaps that contain beeswax. When added to skin care products, beeswax acts as an emollient and a humectant, drawing moisture to the skin and sealing it in, reports Botanical.com. Beeswax also contains vitamin A, which may be beneficial in softening and rehydrating dry skin and in cell reconstruction.

Antibacterial

Beeswax may have mild antibacterial properties, according to a 2005 study conducted at Dubai Specialized Medical Center in the United Arab Emirates. Researchers combined honey, olive oil and beeswax, then applied the mixture to laboratory plates on which the bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, and the fungus, Candida albicans were growing. The honey/beeswax mixture inhibited the growth of the bacteria and fungus, making beeswax, along with honey, potentially beneficial in the treatment of diaper rash and other bacterial skin conditions.   (https://www.livestrong.com/article/192009-skin-benefits-of-beeswax/)
