Shea butter is a vegetable fat extracted from the sun-dried kernels of the Shea tree (Vitellaria Paradoxa). The tree is indigenous to Africa and Unrefined Shea butter is rich in vitamins A, E, oleic acid, and sterols, and hence a great natural ingredient for cosmetics formulations due to its emollient properties, particularly its ability to soften the skin along with dry areas.
For over decades, shea butter has been exported to Europe and used as an ingredient in chocolate and as a substitute for cocoa butter. Both shea and cocoa butters are added to candies for texture and as stabilizers. However, shea butter's current popularity and recognition is due to its moisturizing qualities and its use in high-quality cosmetics and in hair and skin care products. These uses make shea butter one of the few cash crops sold from the African region. The processing of shea nuts into butter is done traditionally and industrially.
