Shea Nut Oil: Lightweight Hydration for Skin and Hair

Shea Nut Oil, derived from the nuts of the African Shea tree, is a valued carrier oil produced by fractionating shea butter. The process isolates the fluid, non-greasy olein rich in oleic acid and vitamin E, creating a highly absorbent oil. This makes it ideal for both face and body care formulations, delivering potent moisture with a light feel. Check out our Blog for more information on Shea Nut Oil.
