In central Africa, the karité tree flourishes remarkably amid harsh, arid conditions.

Sometimes called the “tree of life” for its many beneficial uses, it yields a nut containing the natural fat, (butyrospermum parkii) shea butter.

One of nature’s most effective moisturizers, shea butter is ultra rich yet gentle, providing deep healing, moisturizing and protection of skin, hair, cuticles and lips.

Pré de Provence is proud to make natural shea butter a key ingredient in many of our products, offering a soothing, softening gift from nature.
