Can Shea Butter be used on the face or lips?

Yes, Shea Butter can be used directly on the skin, including the face and lips. It is a natural fat with excellent moisturizing properties.

For direct application, especially on the face and lips, Shea Butter (Ultra Soft) is recommended over the standard Refined type. The Ultra Soft version has a softer texture at room temperature, making it easier and more pleasant to apply directly without needing to warm it up as much as the standard Refined type, which is a harder cream at room temperature.

Both types provide moisturizing benefits and can help with dryness and improve skin elasticity.
