  • THE HEART INSIDEShow

    • Shea Butter

      Our Community Fair Trade shea butter comes from Ghana. Local women hand-harvest shea nuts, dry them in the sun and crack them to extract the kernels. These are roasted and ground into a paste to make the butter. Our trade with the Tungteiya Women’s Shea Butter Association has helped to fund three medical centres and 10 nursery schools. To find out more, visit our Community Fair Trade section.

    • Sesame

      Moisturizes and helps to soften the skin. Provides vital income for small-scale farmers.

    • Ximenia

      Derived from the ximenia fruit that is native to Africa, ximenia seed oil is is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, making it is a very effective hair oil, rich conditioner and skin softener.
