I decided to provide the Beauty Bulletin Ladies with some useful information regarding one of the key ingredients in this Avon Lip Crayon: Shea Butter- read on ladies and enjoy!!
Shea butter is extracted from the nuts of the Shea tree (Butyrospermumparkii), which grows in the savannah of Western Africa. The Shea nuts are traditionally harvested by women, crushed and boiled to extract the Shea butter, which has its unconditional aficionados all over the world. In the hot Sahara or Savannah, Shea butter protects the skin from the sun and dehydration. It is used to heal many skin problems, minor cuts and burns.
What makes Shea butter an extraordinary skin care and an amazing body healer is its richness in precious components, which include unsaturated fats with a large proportion of essential fatty acids, phytosterols, vitamin E and D, provitamin A and allantoin. All these are natural and make Shea butter a superfood for your skin (and hair), but that is not all it can do for you because it is:
• Wrinkles, fine lines and scars repairing
• Antioxidant
• Anti-inflammatory
• Deeply moisturizing
• Stimulating for the superficial microcirculation
• Skin strengthening
• Skin protecting
• UV protecting
• Skin regenerating
• Collagen production stimulating (makes the skin stronger, more supple and younger)
• Physical endurance enhancer
• Shea butter is also one of the best skin care for winter and after-sun care. It provides the extra moisture, vitamins, nutrients and protection your skin needs during the cold season and summertime. It is also the perfect lip balm to protect your lips from the cold and dry weather and keep them beautiful.

Hope this information on Shea Butter is as helpful to you Ladies, as it were to me!! ;-) Im convinced this is a wonder of nature and frankly you should be too ;-)
