on any L’Occitane shea butter products (like the $40 Ultra Rich Face Cream — yum) and you’ll help 12,000 women who produce shea butter in Burkina Faso, Africa. Long before L’Occitane’s founder, Olivier Baussan, visited the resource-rich West African nation in 1982, the women there had perfected an eight-step process to get butter from shea nuts, which they traditionally used to treat everything from minor cuts to eczema. Baussan was wowed by their work and hired them to produce the butter for L’Occitane — at above-market wages. Aside from paying a fair salary (a rarity in developing nations), the L’Occitane Foundation supports 17 literacy centers and finances entrepreneurial workshops for the women, helping them improve their reading skills and business savvy. Many women have also gone on to grow other businesses with the help of microcredit loans from the foundation.
