Beautiful Skin Care from Nature For thousands of years this oil has been treasured by inhabitants of Madagascar and surrounding islands. We work closely with native producers. After collection the nuts are winnowed. At first, the nuts are a light brown color with no visible oil. Within a month of drying, the nut turns darker, and the oil starts to become visible. The nuts are then cold pressed with a simple press, lab tested for export and air shipped to us. Tamanu oil is known as a pharmacy in a bottle. The oil fights against bacterial and fungal infections. It promotes the formation of new tissue. This property, cicatrization, makes the oil perfect for those suffering from acne, rashes, sunburn, insect bites and eczema, and razor nicks. After using tamanu oil, your skin may feel softer and hydrated, diminishing wrinkles. Add it to your essential oil diffuser! Natural Beauty that Empowers Shea Terra Organics is founded by Tammie Umbel, an enterprising super mom, who built the company while homeschooling 14 of her children. Shea Terra Organics grew out of Tammies vision to develop natural skin care treatments that would not only heal and beautify those who use them, but also empower and enrich the lives of many impoverished villages and families throughout Africa. Since early 2000, Shea Terra Organics has been working with cooperatives and conservation groups to source our natural, organic ingredients in a sustainable and ethical way that would create economic opportunities and preserve wildlife. We share these indigenous, time-tested healing ingredients through our breadth of product lines, which include facial care, body treatments, hair herbals and maternity & newborn remedies.
