Let us take you into the world of shea butter -- from its origins
in the western Savannah regions of Africa where it has traditionally been used for cooking, lamp fuel oil, natural skin protectant and
moisturizer and even as raw materials in the building of homes, to its use by African families to welcome their newborn infants into the world
with a rub down in this natural oil to protect the babies from the harsh environment, all the way to its centuries-old use by African healers
who recognized its properties and uses in the healing of burns, in soothing strains and sprains and more.

derived from the nut of the shea tree-called various names, depending on which country you’re in-has come to its current worldwide popularity
as a mainstay not only in the beauty and skin care industries, but also in the making of fine chocolates--will be revealed right here in our
shea butter article and links bank.
