À PROPOS DU BEURRE DE KARITÉ

Beurre de karité : nutrition et engagement

Chez L’OCCITANE en Provence, le beurre de karité est bien plus qu’un simple ingrédient : il incarne le soin, la beauté durable et l’autonomisation. Depuis les années 1980, nous collaborons avec des coopératives de femmes en Afrique de l’Ouest dans le cadre de partenariats de commerce équitable. Cet engagement contribue à améliorer les conditions de vie et de travail, tout en nous permettant de créer des soins pour la peau et le corps d’une qualité exceptionnelle.

Qu’est-ce que le beurre de karité?

Issu des amandes du fruit du karité sauvage, le beurre de karité est une matière grasse naturelle qui se transforme selon la température. Réchauffé entre les paumes des mains, il devient un soin riche et fondant pour la peau du visage et du corps. Polyvalent et profondément nourrissant, il est un essentiel du soin quotidien.

The Benefits of Shea Butter

Shea Butter is renowned for its exceptional properties, offering solutions for a variety of skin concerns:

  • Intense Moisturization: Creates a soft barrier that seals in moisture, perfect for every skin type, including dry skin
  • Soothing Care: Helps reduce feelings of discomfort, making it ideal for different skin concerns, including dry lips.
  • Nourishment & Gentle Protection
  • Naturally rich in Omegas 6 and 9 fatty acids
  • Empowering Women Through Shea Butter

In West Africa, the process of making Shea Butter is a tradition passed from mother to daughter. L’OCCITANE partners directly with producers like Salimata and her daughter Mariétou, ensuring fair trade practices that provide economic security and independence. Through initiatives like the RESIST program (Resilience, Ecology, Strengthening, Independence, Structure, Training), we’ve invested $2 million to support women’s cooperatives, improve sustainability, and protect natural resources. Since 2006, over 30,000 women have been supported, with a goal to empower 60,000 women.
