Shea butter is a moisturizing fat that comes from the African Shea tree in the east and west regions of Africa. Harvesters produce this natural conditioning butter from a nut that is chock-full of fatty acids and nutrients.

It contains a unique fatty acid structure made of oleic, stearic, linoleic, linolenic, and palmitic acids—all of which contribute to shea’s conditioning properties. You can use the fat for skin, hair, etc.
