Shea butter
Natural shea butter, an African treasure that is suitable for all skin types.
Known for centuries in Africa, shea butter is now popular in Canada, Europe, and the United States for its softening and nourishing properties for the skin. It is also used in cosmetics and is an ingredient in most of the soaps produced by La Savonnerie Blanchou.
Extracted from the shea nut, our "natural" shea butter has undergone no refining or processing. This is why it may sometimes have a nutty scent. Don't worry, it's proof that it's a premium quality "natural" shea butter.
The natural shea butter offered by La Savonnerie Blanchou comes from Ghana, a West African country. The Ghanaian soil produces a high stearic acid content, which gives our shea butter a solid consistency, whereas shea butter from Uganda is more often than not liquid and requires an additional step to solidify.
Rich in essential fatty acids, latex, and vitamins A, D, and E, our shea butter is an exceptional ingredient renowned for its numerous cosmetic properties, including:
- protective action against skin dryness
