Why our shea butter?

Because we visited the shea farm in Ghana ourselves, we know for sure that the shea butter is not made in a factory, but by hand. This is important, because every shea butter is of A quality, but decreases in natural effectiveness as humans process it. The less damage we cause to the shea, the better the shea butter is for your skin.

In addition, the project we support in Ghana is a very cool project for the women who work there. Read more about the project.

I receive the shea butter in its pure form and then melt, sieve, can and freeze the shea butter in our production facility.

Shea butter with delicious scents

By adding essential oil to the shea butter, the butter gets a wonderful scent and the shea butter gets an extra effect.

For young children, babies, pregnant or breastfeeding women, please choose only chamomile or shea nut.

  • choose lavender for extra relaxation and a good night's sleep
