  Shea Butter

  Our Community Fair Trade shea butter comes from Ghana. Local women hand-harvest shea nuts, dry them in the sun and crack them to extract the kernels. These are roasted and ground into a paste to make the butter. Our trade with the Tungteiya Women’s Shea Butter Association has helped to fund three medical centres and 10 nursery schools. To find out more, visit our Community Fair Trade section.

The organic sugar in our Shea Body Scrub is supplied by our Community Trade partner, Cooperative Montillo, in Paraguay, a country where 60% of the population lives in poverty. In the region where sugar is grown, there are few paved road roads, poor telecommunications and limited medical assistance. By having access to a stable, reliable market for their sugar cane, the farmers are helping to strengthen and develop the local economy and create vital employment. This means people can remain in the community, rather than having to move away to find work.

Use two or three times per week for maximum effect. Regular exfoliating and massaging can help tone and firm the skin. When dry, moisturize with Shea Body Butter or Body Lotion.
