We source our Shea Butter direct from a cooperative of over 600 women in Ghana. The manufacturing of Shea Butter supports a community of over 2400 people. We are supporting the cooperative by helping them build a new production facility and we have helped them build a well in a neighbouring community so they can have fresh clean water.

How to use
Top Tip
Shea Butter can be sensitive to temperature changes, which can make the Shea feel a little grainy in texture. For an even smoother consistency, melt your Shea Butter and cool rapidly in the fridge or freezer. This will melt any granules there may be in the butter and give you a beautiful, creamy texture.

Skincare
Use Shea on its own as an all over body moisturiser or whip it up with a few drops of essential oils for added benefits.
Hair Care
Shea is excellent for your hair, when applied to the ends of the hair for extra conditioning. It gives hair shine, conditions and helps define certain hair styles, and a little goes a long way. Can help keep your hair frizz free as it seals in moisture and protects from environmental elements.
DIY Beauty
Use Shea Butter to invigorate your homemade formulations. It can be mixed with carrier oils, other butters, essential oils and other natural ingredients for beauty hacks and make your own beauty treatments.
DIY Lip Scrub
For a super simple lip scrub, combine half a teaspoon of Shea Butter with a teaspoon of Organic Coconut Sugar #824 and mix until fully combined. Scoop a small amount and gently massage into your lips to exfoliate and remove dry skin. Remove with a flannel or rinse off with water for beautifully soft and hydrated lips.
