What is Shea Butter?
Shea butter comes from the fat that's extracted from the nuts of the " African Shea Tree" or Vitellaria paradoxa. This tree is also called "The Tree of Life" because of the countless uses of Shea Butter to heal the skin, nourish hair and benefit the body. Often referred to as "Mother Nature's Conditioner", this natural emollient is one of the premier moisturizers and has been used for centuries to greatly soften and deeply hydrate skin & hair. Shea Butter is native to the tropical climate of West Africa, and grows in Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal and the surrounding region.
