Shea butter is an edible extract from a seed produced by the African-native, "Shea" tree (Botanical Name:
Vitellaria paradoxa). Dating back thousands of years to Ancient Egypt (also referred to as
"Kemet") through to present day, Shea Butter is commonly used cosmetically, therapeutically and even medicinally.
It is a powerful, anti-inflammatory & anti-aging moisturizer rich in vitamins A, E, F as well as oleic acid (an omega-9 fatty acid), making it ideal for skin healing. We only use Grade A (raw and unrefined), naturally organic and wild-crafted Shea Butter from Ghana in our products, as some skin conditions may require a more pure extract to fully heal.
