    Q: Shea Butter color
    Why does the color of the Shea Butter vary?

    A: Since Shea Butter is considered "food for the skin", an all natural product, not a cosmetic, and is extractedfrom the Shea Nut/Karite Tree (aka Tree of Life). The original colour is white, then they add a plant root (name kept secret by the locals) to turn it yellow. The tree root is known to have more healing properties. The shade of shea butter can vary from batch to batch.

    Q: Shea Butter
    Is the Shea Butter like lotion?

    A: No. Lotions "pour". Anything that pours has to have more water and/or alcohol (amongst others) in the ingredients than anything else. Since water and oils do not mix. the water has to go somewhere. It dries your skin which is the reason why one finds themselves reapplying lotion on a continual basis.

    Shea Butter, however, is the extract from the Shea Nut Tree. (Karite Tree = Tree of Life) It is obtained by opening up the shea nut from the tree, and scraping out the protective "butter" around the nut. You apply it, sparingly. Your skin will feel so wonderfully smooth and totally moisturized!

    It has been called "Food for the Skin". And, with our added Avocado Oil, it's even got MORE nutritional value.

    Q: Nut meal
    Why do you use pecan meal in your soap?

    A: We discovered that pecans have so many nutrients, that we couldn't NOT use them! Additionally, they are NM largest nut crop, and the largest in the USA.

    Pecans contain 70% oil, Vitamins A, E, folic acid, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, several B vitamins, zinc and more.

    With all this richness, and since our pores are "breathing", the nutrients become imbibed into your skin as you exfoliate. The natural oils help to control the dry skin many of us experience in the arid Southwest.
