Pronounced “pan-ya,” this rare, pale yellow butter has a firm, powdery texture at room temperature, and melts easily on contact. Kpangnan butter’s aroma is mild, nutty, and smoky (similar to a blend of cocoa and shea butter). More deeply moisturizing than shea butter, kpangnan also has a warming effect, and its high stigmasterol content makes it popular for joint and muscle butters. Our wildcrafted, unrefined kpangnan butter is produced in a time-consuming process from trees in the dense forests and riverbanks of West Africa.

Kpangnan Oil is prized for its rich content of Phytosterols (Beta-sitosterol, Stigmasterol, Campesterol) to benefit dry, damaged skin; Polyphenols to combat free radicals in the tissues; and Fatty Acids to protect and moisturise the skin. As an ingredient in skincare formulations, Kpangnan Oil rejuvenates and protects the skin, speeds the healing of minor burns, and protects from wind and sun damage to the skin.

Kpangnan Oil is high in Vitamins A and E, which are known to soothe and hydrate the scalp and hair. It also help stimulate the production of healthy sebum and shield the hair and scalp from external aggressors to keep the hair from drying out and breaking off.
