Shea trees grow naturally in the sub-sahelian vegetation belt in Africa. Shea nuts are sometimes called women’s gold, as their collection is almost the only reliable source of income for local women. This natural emollient with its high unsaponifiable matter content brings many advantages to cosmetic products for skin and hair care, due to its valuable composition of fatty acids, natural tocopherols, allantoin, and beta-carotene, which is a precursor of vitamin A (retinol).

Traditional emulsifiers, while effective, often require hot processing and can leave a waxy residue on the skin. In contrast, fiber-based emulsifiers are cold-processible, saving time and energy, and offering diverse textures and skin feels. These fibers, sourced from food industry waste, include soluble fibers (like pectin and gums) and insoluble fibers, which are crucial for creating Pickering emulsions that use solid particles to stabilize the oil-water interface.Learn More
