Shea Butter: A Natural Remedy for Acne

There are a number of commercial products on the market that claim to treat acne and heal acne scars but as with anything to do with the skin, natural remedies should always be favoured because they provide much better long-term benefits.

Shea Butter has natural antibacterial properties so works on treating the infection that causes acne flare-ups. It also contains Vitamins A, E and K, a natural sunscreen called cinammic acid and a blend of fatty acids that combine to promote healthy, clean skin. The Tausi Signature face creams also contain rosehip oil, amongst other skin health-promoting ingredients.

To reduce and heal acne scars, rosehip oil is highly effective. Vitamin K possesses natural wound healing properties; Vitamin E protects the skin against further damage and the natural sunscreen will prevent existing acne scars from being made to look worse. Vitamin A helps maintain skin health and strengthens immunity from infections.

Whilst Shea Butter is rich, it can still be used effectively to treat acne and promote a clearer complexion. It is important to select the right sort of Shea Butter; unrefined organic Shea Butter has an abundance of benefits over refined Shea Butter and further, East African Shea Butter is superior to West African Shea Butter.

If you suffer from acne, it is vital to be aware of what you use on your skin. Make sure you take time to choose natural products that have all-round benefits and act as both prevention and cure for your ailment. Read labels; know what you are using. And if you decide to try Shea Butter to treat your acne, ensure you select the very best organic, unrefined East African Shea Butter.
