Alaffia Everyday Shea Body Lotion Unscented 32 fl oz — Fair-Trade Shea Butter, Deep Hydration for Very Dry Skin

Alaffia Everyday Shea Body Lotion is an unscented, fair-trade shea butter moisturizer formulated to deeply hydrate and soothe normal to very dry skin.

This lightweight yet rich lotion blends unrefined, fair-trade shea butter with shea leaf and lemongrass extracts to replenish moisture, soften rough patches, and support skin barrier comfort. Handcrafted by women-led cooperatives, the formula is free from sulfates, parabens, phthalates, silicones, mineral oil, artificial colors, and synthetic fragrances. Packaged in a generous 32 fl oz size, it’s designed for daily use across the body when you need reliable, non-irritating hydration.

How does this lotion hydrate very dry skin?

The lotion delivers concentrated emollients from raw shea butter that melt into skin to lock in moisture and reduce immediate dryness. Shea leaf extract adds antioxidant support while lemongrass helps calm and comfort irritated areas. Together they restore softness without leaving a heavy residue.

• Unrefined shea butter provides long-lasting emollience and nutrient-rich fatty acids.
• Shea leaf extract supplies antioxidants to support skin resilience.
• Lemongrass extract soothes and helps reduce surface irritation.
• Unscented formula minimizes risk of fragrance irritation for sensitive skin.

Is this lotion suitable for sensitive or fragrance-free routines?

Yes — the Everyday Shea Body Lotion is intentionally unscented and excludes synthetic fragrances, making it a good match for scent-sensitive users. The clean formulation also avoids common irritants like sulfates and phthalates. If you react to botanical extracts, test a small area first.

• No synthetic fragrance or artificial colors that commonly trigger sensitivities.
• Free from sulfates, parabens, phthalates, silicones and mineral oil.
• Gentle ingredients selected for reduced irritation potential.
• Large pump-friendly bottle supports everyday, whole-body application.

How should I use this lotion for best results?

Apply after bathing or handwashing while skin is still slightly damp to trap moisture. Use a generous amount on rough areas like elbows, knees, and feet, and massage until absorbed. For very dry skin, reapply to targeted spots throughout the day or layer under occlusive clothing at night for intensive repair.

• Use post-shower on damp skin to seal in hydration.
• Massage into dry patches until lotion is fully absorbed.
• Reapply as needed for hands, heels, and elbows.
• Store at room temperature; avoid extreme heat to preserve texture.

What makes Alaffia’s sourcing and production different?

Alaffia partners with women-led cooperatives in West Africa to produce fair-trade raw shea and support community programs. The brand emphasizes sustainable practices, social impact, and transparent ingredient sourcing rather than industrial mass production. Buying this lotion contributes to education, maternal care, and environmental initiatives tied to the supply chain.

• Fair-trade shea butter sourced from women-led cooperatives.
• Handcrafted production methods that help local economies.
• Portion of proceeds support education and maternal health programs.
• Clean-label formulation aligned with cruelty-free standards.

Who is this for: This unscented Alaffia Everyday Shea Body Lotion is ideal for people with normal to very dry skin who want a clean, restorative moisturizer without synthetic fragrances. It’s a practical choice for households that need a larger-size pump bottle for daily full-body hydration, for those seeking ethically sourced ingredients, and for anyone who prefers simple, gentle skincare backed by social-impact sourcing.
