Absorption (?

Absorption

Absorption describes how well a substance penetrates your skin. Here we measure absorption in terms of its rate of penetration into your skin. How fast did it absorb? Some products don't absorb well, and instead "sit" on top of skin forming a film, which can range from light to heavy. If you still have a layer of product sitting on top of your skin, the rate would be considered Very Slow.

Residue (?

Residue

Sometimes a product leaves a residue on the skin after it is applied - a film or a layer of product. Often the residue feels greasy, particularly with heavy moisturizers that contain a high amount of lipids. If your product does have residue, how greasy is it?

Description

Shea Body Butter What it is: An intensively rich all-over body moisturizer. What it does: This luxurious body cream easily absorbs into the skin, helping to condition, smooth, and soften dry areas. What it is formulated WITHOUT: - Sulfates - Petrochemicals - Phthalates - GMOs - Triclosan What else you need to know: The raw ingredients in the Body Shop's Body Butter range are warmed to a high temperature, and then the product is put into jars and cooled to create a specific structure. The process is similar to making chocolate and achieves a firm consistency. The organically certified coconut oil from Samoa used in this product was acquired through natural processes, without the use of chemical extraction. Each coconut is rigorously checked to ensure only the best are cracked open. This cream is suitable for normal to dry skin types.
