East African Shea Butter is the main ingredient used in all Tausi Signature skin care products.
Most Shea Butter products are made with the West African product, the most common type of Shea Butter. It is naturally harder and possesses a stronger scent, and is often thought of as harder to apply to the skin and less easily absorbed.
Pure unrefined East African Shea Butter, however, is much softer than West African Shea Butter and as a result, it melts far more effortlessly into the skin. It has a naturally pleasant, much more discreet scent, making it much more user friendly.
What is more, East African Shea Butter is less commonly found and therefore brings greater financial rewards for the African women who are responsible for its farming.
