UNREFINED SHEA BUTTER

Description

What it is:  Our raw, Unrefined Shea Butter is such a fantastic all-rounder that you absolutely need it in your skincare arsenal. A lot of time when people talk about shea butter, they’re talking about refined shea butter, and, while that is lovely and moisturising, that is where the skincare benefits end.

Proper raw shea butter is a true skin healer that retains all the wonderful minerals and vitamins that have made it so popular over the centuries.

Shea butter is a solid fatty substance that comes from the nuts found inside the fruit of the Karite tree (Vitellaria paradoxa), which is found predominantly in Sub-Saharan Africa.

As part of the Global Shea Alliance (GSA), we source our shea butter from Ghana, Nigeria, and the Republic of Benin, where we provide training to the local village women so they can produce consistent premium shea butter, which in turn increases their revenue and provides empowerment.

Shea butter is lauded in the skincare world for its abilities to not only deeply nourish the skin, thanks to the fact that it’s rich in plenty of fatty acids and plant sterols, such as oleic, stearic, palmitic and linoleic acids.

But one of the outstanding benefits of our Unrefined Shea Butter, and one reason why it is one of our top sellers, is its ability to soothe dry, chapped skin. It can be used on skin and hair.

Why you’ll love it: Our Unrefined Shea Butter is a product that can benefit the whole family. It is really is a versatile, hard-working balm that we know you’ll love as much as we do.
