About our shea oil product
 

      Our product is an ingredient exclusively from Uganda, East Africa. For centuries Shea has been used for a variety of healing purposes in Africa including antioxidant skin moisturizer and deep conditioning hair oil. Shea nut trees are a treasure to Uganda and to the planet at-large. This sacred tree starts to bear fruit when it reaches 15 to 20 years of age. It then continuously produces Shea nuts for a lifespan of up to 300 years. Only until recently this ingredient has become an increasingly popular commodity in high end skin and hair care products made and sold in North America and Europe.
