THE FRUIT OF A SAVANNAH TREE
Shea is a savannah tree that grows in Central and West Africa, in countries such as Nigeria, Senegal, and Burkina Faso. Its fruit contains a nut rich in fat which, when pressed, gives shea butter. This fat is essentially composed of oleic acid and stearic acid which give it undisputed moisturizing and nourishing properties. Its richness in unsaponifiable makes it an excellent soothing and protective agent for the skin.
