Shea Butter and Latex Allergies
However, most people don't know that Shea butter contains naturally occuring latex in it's oil. For people familiar with latex allergies, this may come as an epiphany as to why they keep slathering on "natural shea" lotion, but still have a red hot, irritated persistant rash.
Latex allergies are a progressive allergy, meaning that the allergy get progessively worse the more the person or animal is exposed to the irritant. Latex allergies are currently enjoy one of the highest diagnosed allergy rates in North America and Europe.
As a result of this information, Raincoast Soak Factory removed Shea butter from all of our products. We made the choice to substitute expeller processed Mango butter for the currently trendy Shea. We know that you will continue to love our products even more with this change.
Have a great day.
