The power of plants
The shea tree grows on the savannahs of Africa, considered sacred. By tradition, women are the sole "guardians" of this magic tree, which must not be cut down or damaged, and it is they who gather the shea nuts, which are transformed into shea butter and shea oil.
Skincare benefits of Shea butter
Shea butter, rich in fatty acids, is traditionally used to nourish and protect the skin.
