Raw Material Source
Plant-derived, sourced from shea nuts (Butyrospermum Parkii), obtained via fractionation/extraction of shea butter to yield a liquid oil portion.
Manufacture
Shea Butter Oil is manufactured by mechanically pressing and solvent-extracting the oil from shea seeds, followed by a series of refining steps to ensure purity. It is then fractionated to separate the liquid oil from solid components. A final deodorization step removes residual odors before the oil is packed for use in cosmetic formulations.
