The Women Behind the Butter: Tradition, Empowerment & Skincare That Makes a Difference
At Imagine Beauty, skincare begins with a story—and for us, it starts in the heart of Upper East Region Ghana, Bolgatanga. We proudly partner with local women’s cooperatives that have perfected the ancestral art of shea butter crafting for generations.
This month, we spotlight three remarkable women: Adjoa, Efua, and Nana. Representing three generations of knowledge, care, and tradition, they hand-whip raw shea using nothing but natural tools, patient labour, and deep-rooted skill. The result? Some of the richest, purest shea butter you’ll ever find.
What makes this more than just skincare is the real impact behind each jar:
1. Economic Empowerment:
We work directly with cooperatives to ensure ethical sourcing and fair wages.
2. Sustainability:
Supporting environmentally conscious harvesting and regenerative practices.
3. Women’s Development:
Funding skill training and co-op growth initiatives.
But we don’t stop there. Each Imagine Beauty formula is crafted with premium-grade shea butter (up to 60% in some products), enhanced with science-backed anti-aging ingredients like peptides, hyaluronic acid, and botanical extracts.
This powerful combination of tradition and innovation delivers skincare that:
- Deeply nourishe
- Repairs and restores
- Protects and preserves skin vitality
When you apply Imagine Beauty, you’re not only caring for your skin—you’re honouring generations of women, supporting sustainable agriculture, and fuelling a movement.
