 Shea
Butter
originates from the Karite Tree, meaning the "Tree of
Life", and indigenous to Africa. This tree takes 20
years or more to produce its invaluable fruit, the shea
nut. The ripened nuts, regarded to as "women's gold" are
collected once they fall to the ground and are crushed
to extract its butter. This butter is then boiled and
strained to filter dirt and impurities.

longer it may take to soak in.

desired areas.
