The Story of Shea
The shea tree is rooted in the depths of the West African savannah. Towering 60 feet tall, it lives for hundreds of years. It is here, among this ancient wilderness, that local women congregate to gather shea nuts, which are then ground and roasted to ultimately produce precious, soothing shea butter.
Used for centuries to protect, enrich and soften skin, shea butter is known to contain omega-3s. Omega-3s are known to help maintain skin's natural moisture barrier, and when skin's barrier is protected, precious moisture is less likely to escape. A perfect ingredient for your everyday spa experience, shea butter wraps skin in creamy hydration bliss.
In addition to shea butter, which is known to help soothe dry, chapped skin, Satin Hands Nourishing Shea Cream also includes apricot, safflower and sunflower oils known to be rich in vitamins A and E and omega-3s.
