Let's be honest: most of us have a detailed face care routine and a pretty basic body care one.
We'll spend ten minutes layering serums and treatments on our faces, then grab whatever body lotion is within reach and call it done. But here's the thing- your body is skin too. In fact, it's the majority of your skin.
Your body faces the same environmental stressors as your face: sun exposure, pollution, dry air, hot showers. It goes through the same aging process. It deserves the same level of care and attention.
Yet the body care industry has conditioned us to accept products loaded with synthetic fragrances, cheap fillers, and ingredients that sit on the surface rather than truly nourishing our skin. We've normalized the bare minimum.
At Karité, we believe body care should be as intentional as face care. That's why our products are built around raw, unrefined shea butter sustainably sourced from women-led cooperatives in northern Ghana. No dilution. No shortcuts. Just pure, potent ingredients that actually feed your skin.
When we started this brand, we wanted to honor both the ingredient and the women who produce it. Shea butter has been used for centuries across West Africa for deep healing and protection. It's not a trend, it's a tradition.
Your body carries you through everything. It's time we treated it with the same care, intention, and respect we give our faces.
