Blue Planet Organic Announces the Science Behind Shea Body Butter Collagen Production

Nature placed the best contents within Shea to make it an ideal beauty product.

Shea butter is commonly used on the skin to heal burns and scars. People’s skin will age, wrinkle and become damage by the sun and environment over time. Blue Planet Organics has been asked if Shea butter skincare can actually increase the skin’s collagen and reduce wrinkles. Shea butter can do this naturally from its ingredients. Shea butter has an abundance of vitamin A. Vitamin A stimulates the production of collagen (skin cell building block) in the skin as well as having antioxidant qualities.

Science and research says that antioxidants and vitamin A neutralizes free radicals. This will reduce there influence on developed collagen, and it will encourage new skin development. This development can actually make a persons skin feel smoother and plumper. Another reason Shea butter promotes collagen is that it also has vitamin E. Vitamin E helps restore a person existing collagen and skin. Vitamin E on the skin is well known as means to repair burns, stretch marks and scars. Shea butter acts with its vitamin E to restore and preserve collagen, which provides and environment for new collagen to grow. Vitamin E is an anti-inflammatory, so it quells the injury by reducing the flames and tenderness and allows the skin to heal naturally with the right ingredients.  

Another way Shea butter acts as an anti-aging solution is because vitamin A and E are good moisturizers, and Shea butter acts as a shield against ultraviolet radiation. This will allow the skin to work on the skin and not combat the sun. Shea also absorbs quickly under the skin surface which allows natural skin oils to keep the skin hydrated.

And yet another unique way where Shea has anti-aging qualities is that is works well with others natural skin products like Aloe Vera and essential oils. Shea butter is ideal as a stand alone product or as a DIY (do it yourself) recipe ingredient. Shea butter is often combined with Aloe Vera and other oils in moisturizer as they each work well together and Shea doesn’t take away the qualities of the other ingredients. Shea butter with coconut oil which is anti-microbial, or Aloe Vera which has too many qualities to list here can assist the skin in many ways. Additionally, adding medicinal essential oils like netroli oil which is good for scars, or German Chamomile which contains azulin an anti-inflammatory. This combination creates a synergy of therapeutic properties that builds upon each other to deliver a well rounded and potent package of healing anti-aging goodness to the skin.
