Features and benefits

 

  • Lipex SheaTris is made from FairWild™ certified mass balance shea kernels. This means certified kernels from the Kolo Nafaso direct sourcing program are mixed with non-certified kernels during processing. A mass balance model allows customers to support the program without limiting supply chain requirements.
  • Lipex SheaTris contains a high content of triterpene esters, renowned for their skin-protecting, soothing, and revitalizing properties.
  • The triterpenes in Lipex SheaTris also have the potential to reduce skin damage caused by urban pollution. Tests confirm Lipex SheaTris to be effective at protecting skin against different types of inflammatory mechanisms caused by exposure to urban dust, chemical, and UV stress.


Studies show that Lipex SheaTris:

  • Strengthens the skin barrier function to improve moisture retention and protect against environmental aggressors.
  • Protects skin against collagen degrading enzymes.
  • Reduces the activity of pro-inflammatory cytokines linked to premature aging.
