everyday, everywhere south sudanese body butter
Fresh small batch handcrafted BODY BUTTER made from 100% pure organic unrefined south sudanese shea nicolita seeds. Organic & Unrefined. Creamy (like butter cream icing), soft and 100% raw cold-pressed. The GOOD stuff.
A smooth nourishing indulgent experience, rich in African heritage.
ONE hero ingredient with clear sustainable, 100% traceable empowering women who are rebuilding their lives, for themselves, by themselves through an enterprise they own LULU WORKS.
The shea butter travels from South Sudan (the world’s newest country), first processed in Uganda (removing the seed from its shells) then finally hand finished by Sudanese refugees in Kenya where the cooperative is registered.
We have two experiences available naked with no scent, full of natural vitamin A (supporting the healing of a number of skin conditions including eczema, blemishes, supporting healthy ageing skin) and vitamin E (anti-oxidant = skin protectant). A second experience with a touch of jasmine flower petals ✨
Promotes softer, smoother, healthier skin = what more do you need?
Packed in a luxury apothecary amber 120ML protective amber jar (lasts about 1 month depending on usage) AND now new the larger 250ML jar last about 2.5 months. Soon I will be providing a refill option so keep your eyes peeled - so keep those lovely jars.

One hero ingredient: 100% raw authentic shea butter sustainably sourced from a womens cooperative LULU WORKS who are providing economic empowerment and jobs for south sudanese refugees in Kenya & Uganda and sourcing directly from south Sudan.
An inspiring by us for us worker owned cooperative that began in 2000 - LULU WORKS woman process the shea nut instead of it being exported which would exclude them from the value chain, allowing creation of jobs and join the global market sharing their natural resource.

Bought this on a whim — Wow — love how pure and simple the product is and above all I love how it makes my skin GLOW! Full of vitamins and antioxidants, Ruva's South Sudanese Shea Butter will be my go-to for skin health always.
Small note — wish they used biodegradable paper tape and compostable peanuts/void fill for packaging instead of plastic options. I like the ethos of this company and think it would help if it was reflected in a more planet friendly packaging/shipping experience.
