Community Fair Trade shea butter

Intensely nourishing for dry skin and hair

Shea butter has been used for generations to help Ghanaian women protect their skin from the dry Saharan winds. Its rich texture and high fat content makes it intensely moisturising, which is good for skin and good for the community. Every 200ml tub of Shea Body Butter is packed with the butter of 36 shea nuts. It’s a lot. We counted.

We’ve been working with Tungteiya Women’s Shea Butter Association in Ghana for over 25 years. Over 600 women from the association use traditional techniques handed down through generations to handcraft the shea butter that fills our favourite Body Butters.

It was our founder, Anita Roddick, who started this partnership, and it’s something we’re really proud of.

Discover the Shea range

Our trade provides a fair price and financial independence for the women. We also pay a premium to invest in community projects, and today over 45,000 people benefit from the social fund – including healthcare, sanitation and education projects.

Hi there! Thank you for being interested in our Argan Body Butter! This product was recently updated to achieve higher standards of naturality and achieve a “just picked” scent, hence the new formula is not similar to the older one. Hopefully this helps!

Can the Wild Argan Oil Sublime Nourishing Body Butter old formula be brought back? People with eczema and very dry skin need the old formula. The new version smells unpleasant and doesn't work like the original. New version = lost customers and revenue! 1 answer

What wasn't vegan about the original formula? I've been vegan for years, and lover of the original formula... didn't realize it was not a vegan product. Was going vegan really what made the dramatic difference, or other changes for cost/ethical sourcing? 1 answer

I’m vegan as well and thought the Argan was originally vegan, so now I’m hesitant to believe that any of their products are truly vegan
