Shea Butter Ethyl Esters are emollient esters derived from shea butter. They are designed to be light and silky-soft, unlike pure shea butter, which can feel greasy on the skin. They are claimed to have a great sustainability profile, long-lasting stability, and a unique, light, and silky feel, making them ideal for modern, eco-friendly body lotions and facial care products.

Shea butter is obtained from the fruits of the shea tree (Butyrospermum parkii). The fat obtained from the shea nut can be used in many different ways in cosmetics, since shea butter contains many valuable ingredients which are supposed to have a caring effect: apart from unsaturated fatty acids, it contains, for instance, the antioxidants Vitamin E and allantoin. Shea butter is a high-quality caring and moisture substance and is, therefore, particularly suited for the care of dry to very dry skin. Shea butter penetrates particularly well into the skin and makes it soft and receptive for other substances. Dry and brittle hair is provided by the butter with softness and suppleness because of the many fatty acids contained therein. Through ingredients such as allantoin, shea butter can also be used for skin irritations and contributes towards an acceleration of the cell structure as well as the cell formation and regeneration of the skin. Shea butter is also well suited for lipcare. Shea Butter Ethyl Esters are also used in TNS Advanced Serum, a skin rejuvenating formula that might visibly improve and treat your skin. This serum has many beneficial ingredients, including TNS-MR, Renessensce (RSC) Advanced, water, pentylene glycol, glycerin, human fibroblast conditioned media (HFCM), shea butter ethyl esters, lactococcus ferment lysate, and more.
