1. Tama Shea Oil
Shea oil is widely becoming highly
recommended and one of the best selling
skin care products nowadays. Shea butter
is used in Africa as cooking oil, contrary to
other countries where it is widely used as a
cosmetic ingredient.
It is widely used as salve and moisturizer.
Because of its anti-drying, softening and
shielding effects, shea oil is an efficient
ingredient in soaps, sun care products,
hand creams, body massage products, anti-
wrinkle creams and for hair care
applications.
Tama Shea oil, high in essential fatty
acids, unsaponifiable (7-8%), and Vitamins A, E, and F, is efficient in providing skin
with all the essential elements for good balance, elasticity and tone. It cares for the skin,
especially skin repair and soothing action. It rejuvenates old cells and brings back
elasticity and tone. It easily melts at body temperature and rapidly penetrates deep down
the skin without leaving a greasy feeling.
Tama shea oil moisturizes dry skin, helps prevent ashy skin, chapping, rashes and tough
skin especially feet and elbows. It acts as a good ingredient for hair care where 0.5-1%
addition in a conditioner or using the shea oil directly to hair may help enhance gloss and
moisture retention in the hair. It is also applied before swimming to protect hair against
chlorine and sea salt. It prevents bed sores and ensures continued suppleness and
moisture of elderly skin. It can be used as a sunscreen to
prevent the UV rays from penetrating the skin. It helps
aging skin tissue to firm up and protect against wrinkles and
fine lines. And shea oil is recommended as base oil for
massage therapy when it is blended.

direct personal care usage and also serve as raw material for
homemade body and personal care product manufacturers.
It is obtained by fractioning shea butter to separate its liquid
and solid properties while preserving all the valuable
2. characteristics of shea butter. It maintains the integrity of the stratum corneum and helps
protect the epidemis. Since shea oil has a low melting point that leads to easy creation of
emulsions with no adverse crystallization, it is recommended for use in liquid
formulations.
