Shea butter
INCI : butyrospermum parkii
Shea butter is a 100% plant-based product and is obtained from the fruits of the African shea tree, also known as the "Tree of Life" for its powerful properties.
This tree belongs to the natural vegetation of the savannah areas and dry forests of the southern Sahel: an area that stretches for 5,000 kilometers, from Senegal to Ethiopia and Uganda. The first fruits only come after 15 years.
The kernel of this fruit is the shea nut and consists of half fat. This is why this tree is often referred to as the butter tree.
