After launching the first line of essential oils made exclusively of raw materials picked and processed in the African continent. Shortly after, we opened other products such as Shea Butter and Carrier Oils.
Shea butter is a natural butter cold pressed from the nuts of the African Shea tree (Vitteralia Paradoxa).
Our Shea seeds are collected in Uganda and processed in Kenya). The Nilotica Shea butter is a rare natural butter from a sub-species called Vitellaria Nilotica found ONLY in the East African region.
It is creamier, with a mild and slightly nutty aroma and richer in oleic acid content which makes it softer, moisturizing, easier to spread and highly absorbent on the skin and hair.
The butter has Emollient, moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging and skin/ hair regenerating properties. It is effective for all skin and hair types including those of babies and people with sensitive skin. It can be used on its own, being mixed with other pure oils or as a cosmetic ingredient.
Carrier oils are oils with little to no scents and are obtained through cold pressing or maceration of either seeds, kernels, nuts or even vegetables.
These oils are called carrier oils because they “carry” essential oils into the skin as they are too harsh on their own. They are also commonly referred to as base oils, fixed oils, and vegetable oils even though not all of them are from vegetables. Carrier oils can also be used on their own to help nourish both hair and skin amongst other uses and benefits.
