Finding the right moisturiser for sensitive skin can be tricky.

Finding the right moisturiser for sensitive skin can be tricky. You want something simple and uncomplicated with nourishing ingredients that won’t irritate your skin. But you also want it to be effective. Enter The Body Shop 100% Natural Shea Butter, CLEO Beauty Hall of Fame winner for Best Moisturiser for Sensitive Skin.

Made from sustainably sourced Community Trade shea butter from 192 shea nuts, this multipurpose moisturiser has a rich texture that instantly seeps into the skin to leave it hydrated, soft and rejuvenated. What’s more, it doesn’t leave a sticky feeling or that dreaded shine associated with rich moisturisers.

Use it to soothe dry, tight or flaky skin on your face and body or to tame dry hair. You can even create DIY shea butter-infused beauty recipes like a lip scrub, hair treatment or shower cream. The best part? It’s completely vegan!

The Body Shop 100% Natural Shea Butter, $31. Available at all The Body Shop outlets.
