Tales from Nature
The Shea tree , known as the "tree of youth," grows wild in African savannas and can live up to 200 years. Shea Butter, a buttery substance widely used by African women to preserve the beauty of their skin over time, is extracted from its seeds. Rich in fatty acids, such as oleic and stearic, it deeply nourishes even the driest, most sensitive and dehydrated skin.
