What is Shea butter and what is so special about it?
Shea butter is an oil derived from the African Karite Tree. It has been used extensively in African countries to heal irritated skin and soothe stretch marks. Unique to shea butter is it’s high content of non-saponifiable fats, which means much of the shea butter does not turn into soap and is available as a moisturizing element in the soap. Shea butter is added to the majority of our soaps.
