Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Butyrospermum Parkii Butter is a plant lipid from the fruit of the Shea Tree. It is an effective skin hydrator and emollient.
Emollients help soothe and soften your skin. It does this by creating a protective film on your skin. This barrier helps trap moisture and keeps your skin hydrated. Emollients may be effective at treating dry or itchy skin.
Shea butter is rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants help fight free-radicals, or molecules that may harm the body. It is also full of fatty acids including stearic acid and linoleic acid. These acids help replenish the skin and keep skin moisturized.
While Shea Butter has an SPF rating of about 3-4, it is not a sunscreen replacement.
Shea butter may not be fungal acne safe. We recommend speaking with a professional if you have any concerns.

Nivea Cherry Shine Lip Balm 13 ingredients
Not moisturizing at all even after repeated use. My lips were so cracked and were bleeding. Nice colour but doesn't last.
It leaves a slightly pinkish color which wasn’t to my liking, though that's just personal preference. It smells nice and is priced well. If you're used to thicker, vaseline-like textures, it might not feel moisturizing enough at first, but I eventually got used to it
