Why This Ingredient Matters

Shea Butter is a lipid-rich botanical butter valued for its ability to soften and condition dry skin. Its naturally occurring fatty acids help replenish surface lipids, reduce the feeling of dryness, and leave skin feeling smoother, softer, and more supple.

Why Formulation Matters

Hydration requires more than adding water to the skin. Humectants help attract moisture, while lipid-rich ingredients such as Shea Butter help condition the skin and reduce moisture loss.

Luzern uses Shea Butter within a broader lipid system rather than relying on it alone, combining it with complementary botanical oils, Squalene, antioxidants, and other conditioning ingredients for richer, more complete replenishment.
