Protection from the Elements Shea trees dot the landscape in Burkina Faso, where hot winds blow sand and dust daily across the Savannah. To protect their skin from the harsh conditions, women have used shea butter for generations. Organized into cooperatives, they use traditional methods to harvest and extract the butter from inside the fruits of this sacred tree. The result - a universal and irreplaceable beauty product.
