Shea butter is derived from the nuts of the shea tree (Vitellaria paradoxa), which grows naturally across the dry savannah's of West Africa. These trees, often called the “karité tree,” can live up to 200 years. Women in villages throughout countries like Ghana, Burkina Faso, and Nigeria have traditionally harvested the nuts by hand, then roasted, ground, and whipped them into the butter we know and love.
