When the dryness of winter sets in, ladies across the country look for thick, creamy moisturizers to rejuvenate their skin. Gift givers are practically guaranteed to receive a good response when giving the women in their lives a high-quality shea butter product.

By purchasing the L’Occitane Shea Butter Gift Set, you’ll not only be providing a generous gift, you’ll also be supporting a group of women across the globe in the country of Burkina Faso. Citizens of this African nation often refer to shea butter as “women’s gold” because the majority of women harvest the fruit of karite trees (which are abundant in the region) to create the miraculous moisturizer.

Burkina Faso frequently has harsh winds that quickly dry the skin, creating the need for a highly effective emollient. As the ladies dry the karite fruit and grind them into a fine paste, they are financially supporting their families. L’Occitane has partnered with several cooperatives of the region to ensure the women receive as much profit as possible in return for their efforts.

By purchasing one of L’Occitane’s numerous top-shelf shea butter products, you will be getting an irreplaceable beauty product that is providing an invaluable benefit to the women who made it.
