The essential benefits of shea butter

- Nourish and deeply hydrate
- Protecting skin and hair from external aggressions

- Repairing damaged skin and split ends
The beauty uses of shea butter
FOR THE FACE
Shea butter is a valuable ally for maintaining skin hydration and protecting the skin. It can be used:
- After sun exposure, to soothe and nourish
- As an aftershave treatment, to soothe irritations
- On the lips, to smooth and soften
FOR THE BODY
Its melting texture absorbs quickly, leaving skin supple and comfortable without any greasy residue. It is ideal for:
- Very dry areas such as elbows, knees or heels
- Preventing dehydration
- Offering a moment of well-being through its delicate fragrances (like the Fleur des Îles version from Cattier)
FOR HAIR
Shea butter nourishes the hair fiber, protects against damage (sun, pollution, heating appliances) and restores shine to dull hair.
As a mask or leave-in treatment, it:
- Restores suppleness and shine
- Repairs split ends and ends
- Protects against frizz and dryness
- Helps to smooth down hair without damaging it.
The origin of a precious ingredient
Derived from the kernels of the shea tree fruit, grown mainly in West Africa, this natural butter has been produced for generations.
At Cattier, we select organic shea butter, 100% natural, processed in Burkina Faso and then refined in France to guarantee purity and quality.
An ethical and sustainable sector
Since 2015, we have been working with a producer committed to:
- Improving living conditions and empowering rural women
- Preserving local biodiversity
- The development of responsible and sustainable production
This partnership allows more than 600 families in Burkina Faso to benefit from a stable income, while maintaining traditional know-how.
A manufacturing process that respects its properties
Cattier shea butter is obtained by cold pressing, a method that preserves its nourishing active ingredients.
The refining process, carried out with respect for the environment, results in a white texture and a neutral odor, while retaining its restorative properties.
In conclusion
Organic shea butter is a universal treatment, effective on both skin and hair. With its natural origin, richness in nutrients, and ethical production, it represents the perfect combination of effectiveness, pleasure, and respect for the planet.
