How to Use Raw Shea Butter for Deep Moisture on Face and Body

Effective moisturizing isn’t about layering products — it’s about using the right product correctly. Raw shea butter works best when applied to slightly damp skin, which allows it to lock in hydration rather than sitting on the surface.

For facial use, raw shea butter can be applied sparingly as a night moisturizer or protective barrier. Because it is rich and concentrated, only a small amount is needed. Warm it between your fingers and gently press it into areas that feel dry or tight, avoiding heavy application.

On the body, shea butter is especially effective for elbows, knees, heels, hands, and areas prone to roughness or cracking. Applying it after a shower helps trap moisture and keep skin soft throughout the day. With consistent use, dry patches become noticeably smoother and more comfortable.

This shea butter is free from artificial fragrance, making it suitable for those with dry or sensitive skin. Its natural nutty scent fades quickly after application, allowing it to layer well with perfumes or other body products.

For best results, apply twice daily — once in the morning and once in the evening. Consistency is key when it comes to restoring and maintaining moisture levels.
