HEDI® Shea Butter SF (R10105) is a unique water-based microdispersion of shea butter with organic-certified babassu oil, plant-derived squalane, sunflower-derived phospholipids, and vitamin E. The triglycerides (fat) in shea butter are derived mainly from stearic acid and oleic acid. Organic certified babassu oil is extracted from wild-picked fruits of the babassu palm tree, offering softening properties with glycerides of lauric, myristic, and oleic acids. HEDI® Shea Butter SF is an excellent emollient, conditioner, and moisturizer that revitalizes dull, dry skin and promotes skin renewal. Applications for HEDI® Shea Butter SF include moisturizing treatments for very dry, rough, and cracked skin, skincare products for sensitive skin, and skin, scalp, and hair care conditioning formulas. HEDI® Shea Butter SF can be used in many care products, such as moisturizing creams and emulsions, sunscreens, lip gloss, makeup primers, facial masks, sunless tanning products, hair conditioners, and soaps.HEDI® products are stable ingredient blends of aqueous and oil-based materials made using a unique manufacturing process. HEDI® products are ultra-concentrated homogeneous constructs that are infinitely dilutable in aqueous systems. HEDI® products have superior aesthetics while simplifying formulation and manufacturing processes and enhancing the delivery of active ingredients in the formula. HEDI® products can be adjusted to achieve a consistency that is milk-like (pourable and even sprayable), creamy, or paste-like. Tactile properties can be light and silky or velvety and more occlusive. HEDI® products streamline manufacturing processes for time, energy, and cost savings by avoiding additional heating, melting, and mixing steps. HEDI® products are amenable to cold processes and do not require surfactants or emulsifiers.HEDI® products have properties similar to the skin barrier, promoting skin permeability and facilitating delivery through the lipid-rich, waterproof stratum corneum. Finished products have a better feel and provide superior surface coverage when compared to traditionally formulated butters and oils.
