A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SHEA BUTTER

Shea butter, also known as African karite butter, grows in Central Africa, where it is taken from the fruit off the African butter tree. What's unique about shea butter is that it remains in its original state within bars of soap, unlike other oils that combine and decompose with the sodium hydroxide.

Benefits when added as a soap ingredient:
Great for foot and body care
Hard bar
Stable lather
Conditioning
Nourishing and moisturizing
