OLVE'Care™ Shea Oil

With a remarkable surge of over 25% in Shea-based products over the last 5 years, Shea has solidified its position as the top choice in cosmetic formulations. In 2023, Shea, in both liquid and solid forms, claimed the throne as the number one among fats and oils utilized in global cosmetic product launches, surpassing even mineral oils.

OLVE’Care™ Shea Oil helps formulators elevate skincare products, harnessing the power of this precious ingredient for a nourishing and luxurious experience.

OLVE’Care™ Shea Oil boasts a 100% natural composition (according to the ISO 16128 standard) therefore increasing the naturality of personal care products in perfect alignment with current consumer expectations and clean beauty trends.

Delving deeper into sustainable sourcing, our OLVE’Care™ range includes a Fair trade Certified OLVE’Care™ Shea Oil FFL (Fair for Life). This exceptional quality not only exceeds the bounds of naturalness but also extends to supporting local communities through Fair trade development funds.

Beyond mere skincare, OLVE’Care™ Shea Oil FFL stands as a beacon of traceability, ensuring that your choice aligns with sustainability and transparency.
