So, what is voi?
Voi, also known as African butter or shea butter, is a versatile and nutrient-rich ingredient often used in skincare and haircare products. Derived from the nuts of the shea tree, voi has been used for centuries in traditional African medicine for its anti-inflammatory and healing properties. Its high levels of vitamins A and E nourish and moisturize the skin, while its fatty acids protect against environmental stressors. In cooking, voi can be used as a substitute for butter or oil, adding a nutty flavor to dishes. Its benefits make it a popular choice for those seeking natural and sustainable ingredients.
