# Extra Dry Patches — Era Organics Vaginal Moisturizer

> Shea butter (Butyrospermum Parkii) delivers dense fatty acids that coat and soften keratinized skin.

Shea butter (Butyrospermum Parkii) delivers dense fatty acids that coat and soften keratinized skin. Sodium hyaluronate draws moisture into the outer skin layer (stratum corneum), holding it there through repeated friction and movement. Extra-dry patches on the vulva soften with daily application of a dime-sized amount.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How do I keep my body's skin deeply moisturized?

Deep, lasting moisture comes from pairing an ingredient that pulls water in with one that seals it there. Sodium hyaluronate draws moisture into the outer skin layer (the stratum corneum) and holds it through friction and movement, while shea butter delivers dense fatty acids that coat and soften rough, keratinized skin. For delicate areas prone to extra-dry patches, Era Organics' USDA Organic Vaginal Moisturizer combines both — a dime-sized amount applied daily helps soften dry patches on the vulva.
