Shea Butter is an ideal beauty ingredient which has been used for centuries by women in Sub-Saharan Africa to nourish & protect their skin & hair. L' Occitane works directly with women's Shea-processing collectives in western Africa, supporting economic recovery & a heritage of natural harvesting methods. The Shea Cleansing Oil with its silky texture, efficiently removes impurities & make-up (including waterproof) in a single step. Enriched with nourishing Shea oil (5%), it transforms into a soft emulsion when applied with water to preserve skin's natural hydration. Your skin will be clean & comfortable & your complexion fresh & radiant. To use: With your eyes closed, massage the oil onto face with dry or wet hands. Add water to transform the oil into a milky lotion then rinse off with fresh water.
