Our Shea butter is derived from the nuts of the African shea tree.

The tree is native to West Africa, specifically in countries such as Ghana, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Ivory Coast. Shea butter has been used for centuries in these regions for its nourishing and moisturizing properties. The process of extracting the butter involves crushing and boiling the nuts before collecting and refining the fat-rich oil that solidifies into a creamy substance with a high concentration of fatty acids and vitamins. Shea butter is widely used today in skincare products due to its natural emollient properties and is also an important ingredient in traditional African medicine and cuisine.
