Many mothers with newborns and toddlers use various mineral based oil for their babies and these with attendant troubles. They are known to cause rashes and so much discomfort for babies. Is there a natural way of taking care of your baby? The answer is an emphatic YES. This is a natural ingredient cream-Shea butter. (pronounced shee) It has been referred to as women gold for obvious reasons. It is called ori in yoruba. It is known to produce amazing results on babies and adult skins. Some of the benefits include:


1.Shea Butter nourishes and protects your baby’s delicate skin like nothing else available.

2.it protects your baby’s bottom from diaper rash, or if your baby develops cradle cap, shea butter is the only cream you will need to soothe and heal this condition.

3. your baby will love having daily shea butter massages.

4. An emollient which penetrates the skin quickly, Shea Butter moisturizes your scalp and helps to reduce and eliminate dandruff.

5.Prevents skin aging. Acts as a protective layer preventing skin dehydration and protecting it from external factors such as heat, cold, wind and sudden changes in climate.

6. Acts as a powerful antioxidant. Smooths and restructure winkles, scars and other imperfection of the skin.

7. It is used as a sunscreen before and after tanning, protecting skin of the sun damages such as UVB and UVA.

8. Prevents and treats stretch marks with great results. Ideal for pregnant women. Also prevents cracking on the breast skin.

9.It is effective in treating diaper rash in infants. Relieves redness of the area and protects the skin from wetness.

10. If you have chronically dry skin or Eczema, using Shea Butter provides natural moisture to your skin and relief from itching. I use this on my two year old before bedtime to ensure he doesn't scratch himself raw during the night.

11. Applying Shea Butter immediately helps take the sting out of insect bites. This will allow the bite to heal faster, as you are not scratching.

Mothers, your best bet for your babies and families cream is shea butter

Dont mind them. what they dont know is that most of the creams they buy all have shea butter base with its natural healing properties destroyed by the harsh chemicals added to it.
Less is always more... i love my natural shea butter.

Why cant the mods put such a thread that can benefit humanity on the homepage? Cant they figure out good thread?

It is safe to mix shea butter with my cream then. Just that when I see it locally for sale, it is usually exposed. Dirt and the sort nko?
