The thousand virtues of Shea Butter

Shea Butter

LATIN NAME: Butyrospermum parkii
ACTION: nourishing, protective, elasticising

A beauty remedy known since ancient times to African women, Shea Butter is obtained from the nut of the Vitellaria paradoxa tree, a plant of the Sapotaceae family. Rich in sterols, tocopherols, vitamin A, B, E and F, it is known in cosmetics for the nourishment and protection it brings to both skin and hair. What is more, the butter that reaches our Laboratories is produced by local communities in Burkina Faso.
