The tree on which these fruits grow is common in Central and West Africa. By the way, this tree lives up to several hundred years, and begins to bear fruit only in the 50th year of its life. So pay tribute to the value of shea butter the next time you use it. In the Senegalese language, the shea tree is called karite, so websites usually indicate two names.
The oil itself is made from ripe fruits, or more precisely from the kernel of the nut. In our country it is used for cosmetic purposes, but in Africa it is used both as food and as a medicine. Shea butter came to Europe only at the end of the 19th century. For Africans, this tree is sacred.
What is unique about shea butter (karite)?
Oil, or more precisely, shea butter butter, that is, oil that under normal conditions remains hard, has a pleasant, slightly nutty aroma, and can be white to light cream in color. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that it contains up to 17% unsaponifiable fats. These are the fats that will not enter into a chemical reaction with alkali, and accordingly will have a beneficial effect on the skin in soap and cosmetics.
Why does shea butter soften the skin?
As you know, not every oil will moisturize or nourish the skin sufficiently; some oils can even dry it out. Due to the rich content of triglycerides of fatty acids in shea butter, this product has high plasticizing properties and penetrates the layer of horny cells.
