Shea Butter, known as Òrì in Yoruba, is a natural fat extracted from the nuts of the African shea tree (Vitellaria paradoxa). This ivory-colored butter is a staple in West African households, cherished for its versatility in cooking, skincare, and traditional medicine. In culinary applications, especially in Nigeria, unrefined shea butter is used for frying and as a base for soups and stews, imparting a rich, nutty flavor.

Beyond the kitchen, shea butter is renowned for its moisturizing and healing properties. Rich in vitamins A and E, it nourishes the skin, promotes elasticity, and provides relief for conditions like eczema and dry skin. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties make it a valuable ingredient in natural skincare routines.
