Shea Butter

Unrefined, unbleached and totally unadulterated, this organic and fairly traded shea butter is produced by womens co-operatives from Ghana, West Africa using harvesting and crafting techniques that have been used for thousands of years.  Free from any chemical processing, this shea butter retains all its natural goodness.  It is a far cry from refined hard, white shea butter which is literally processed to death!

Palm Free Soap

Most soaps are made with palm oil because it is cheap and readily available. According to the World Wildlife Fund, an area the equivalent size of 300 football fields of rainforest is cleared each hour to make way for palm oil production. The demand for cheap palm oil results in vast deforestation – trees are cleared to make way for mass palm tree plantations to fulfil the requirements of the palm oil industry. Many baby Orangutans are left orphaned and suffer burns and skin problems as a result of the forest fires (the fires are started to destroy forest to make way for palm plantations). Choosing palm free soaps is a forest and orangutan friendly alternative.
