Shea butter: the essential for dry skin
Dry skin requires special attention throughout the year.
The skin often appears drier in the cold season as it lacks water and lipids. The impact on the skin could become more significant during the 50s because the hydrolipidic film plays a less effective role as a shield against water loss.
Key Takeaways
- Shea butter is a valuable ally for dry skin, helping to deeply moisturize, nourish, and comfort the skin.
- Rich in vitamins A and E, it helps protect the skin from oxidative stress and supports its natural resilience.
- To maintain comfort and suppleness year-round, dry skin can benefit from skincare products formulated with high-quality shea butter.
What are the consequences of dry skin?
The appearance of fine lines, tightness, redness... This indicates that the skin is no longer performing its barrier function properly and becomes permeable to external aggressions.
Our advice? Adopt essentials that are both moisturizing and nourishing, strengthening the hydrolipidic film with skincare rich in essential fatty acids and ceramides to reinforce and rebalance the skin. For this, Maria Galland Paris has selected an ingredient that enriches its professional formulas: shea butter.
Shea butter, your nourishing ally
All the precious benefits of shea butter are enhanced in some of our NUTRI’VITAL formulas to offer long-term soothing and rebalancing care for dry skin.
Every morning, after thoroughly cleaning your skin, apply a nourishing serum followed by the rich and creamy 460 NUTRI’VITAL Cream or its light but equally nourishing version, the 5A NUTRI’VITAL Light Cream.
Your skin is nourished, restored, and regains its comfort. It is better protected against external stress factors (cold, pollution...), and its barrier function is preserved. For even more targeted action, apply the 450 NUTRI’VITAL Eye Contour Cream, which contains nutrients and revitalizing and protective actives dedicated to this delicate and fragile area.
Shea butter also brings its rich benefits to sensitive skin with the 160 SENSI’REPAIR Cream, as well as in the 661 LIFT’EXPERT Rich Firming Cream that boosts collagen production in mature skin for firmer skin.
Shea butter is recognized for its exceptional moisturizing and nourishing properties, making it a precious ally for dry skin.
It is composed of fatty acids that deeply nourish the skin. Shea butter is also rich in vitamins A and E with antioxidant properties that promote cell regeneration and protect the skin from free radicals. It is also a dehydration-fighting ally: its rich and creamy texture helps restore the hydrolipidic film and reduce water loss. Ideal for regaining and maintaining flexibility and elasticity.
These essential Maria Galland Paris skincare products will undoubtedly help your skin regain its elasticity and radiance.
