FAQ

What is the difference between Ivory and Gold Shea Butter?

At LIHA Beauty we offer two types of vegan raw Shea butter: Ivory and Gold. Both our Shea butters are unrefined. The difference in colour is attributed to the region in which the Shea butter was extracted and can also be based on the season and production methods. The same amazing skin health properties remain, regardless of the colour, however, depending on your personal usage of the butters you may prefer one over the other. Both are rich in Vitamins A and E and work wonders for multipurpose moisture.

Ivory Shea butterĀ is from Ghana and can be crumbly in texture. It has a nutty vanilla scent, it'sĀ perfect butter for keeping small areas such as the lips, hands and feet moisturised on the go.Ā 

Gold Shea butterĀ is from Nigeria and has a moreĀ smoky, earthy smell remnant from the roasting process of the Shea fruit and waxy in texture. It can be seamlessly smoothed into larger areas of the body as well as being the quintessential weapon against dry, flaky and itchy scalps.

They are both really hydrating and nourishing but we would say the Gold Shea butter is slightly more moisturising and have had amazing reviews for treating eczema and other skin conditions. Check out what some of our customersĀ told us about using our raw Shea butter to treat their eczema.

I have a nut allergy- can I use raw Shea butter?
We recommend not to use Shea butter if you have a nut allergy as Shea Butter is made from Shea nuts.
I have Psoriasis -can I use Shea Butter?
Psoriasis sufferers are advised to patch test before use as Shea butter encourages the regeneration of skin cells. People with psoriasis have an increased production of skin cellsĀ resulting in theĀ build-up which is what isĀ associated with psoriasis. Some people have found it helpful for the condition.
Does raw Shea butter work well for eczema?

The short answer is Yes but everyone's skin is different. While our raw Shea butter have had some rave reviews from customersĀ you will need to try it for yourself - HERE

Raw Shea butter is super Rich in Vitamins A, E and F Shea butter is an all natural treatment for eczema that can help to reduce flare ups, minimise scarring and give relief from itchy, skin.

Are your products suitable for during pregnancy and/or nursing?
As most women prefer to use unscented products during this time, our Shea butter is a customer favourite to keep stretch marks at bay during pregnancy and as a nipple balm during nursing. It even works wonders as a nappy balm!
Can I use raw Shea butter on my face?

Shea butter is great for hydrating most of your skin and is low on the comedogenic scale. However, rawĀ Ā Shea butter is very thick and rich, and can make some people break out but everyone is different and we have customers who use it on their face with no issues. We, therefore, advice you to patch test for yourself to see if it suits your skin. Personally, I use it on dry patches of my face especially in winter or as a 10 minute face mask.

So,if you need a hit of hydration on your face, leave the Shea butter on for about 10mins and then use a warm flannel or micellar water to gently wipe away.

Smells - overpriced product

The butter smells and costumer service is ridiculously poor. All in all an overpriced product.

Amazing product!

I love this Shea butter so much! I use it everywhere from my face to toes. It is so much more effective than any other products Iā€™ve tried at keeping my skin soft and hydrated. I love that itā€™s a natural product, so it feels nourishing to put on my skin. Iā€™m never going back!

Iā€™m recently trying to change to more natural products. Gold Raw Shea Butter from LIHA is very nourishing. I must say the smell was a bit strong to begin with but after a few uses Iā€™m so use to it. I also want to try the other products thank you šŸ™

I love this shea butter and I think itā€™s the best one out there. Beautifully smooth consistency and a delicately natural smell. I warm a little in my hands after the shower for an everyday all-over foot treatment. I use it on my elbows, hands, knees or anywhere which needs an extra bit of care. Itā€™s also lovely on legs and dĆ©colletage for a glamorous shine. I could not be without it.
