Nilotica Shea Butter Soap Rosemary Peppermint - Uganda

Bar soap enriched with Nilotica (East African) shea, naturally softer and melt-on-contact for a plush, silky glide. With higher oleic acid and naturally occurring antioxidants (like vitamin E) than common shea, Nilotica makes the lather feel extra conditioning. The result is a beautiful after-feel—supple, comfortable skin that’s perfect for dry seasons and frequent hand-washing. This variety provides a cool burst of spearmint with herbaceous rosemary.

Artisan Story

Founder, Margaret Loloyo, spent nineteen years working alongside communities in Uganda and has seen firsthand the difference that fair, transparent partnerships can make.  Earth & Country isn’t just about selling skincare–it’s about helping people truly see where their products come from and ensuring that the people behind them are seen, respected and empowered.

Earth & Country is built on direct partnerships that honour transparency and impact from origin to jar. They believe that direct trade can provide fair, equitable income.  Artisan communities become key players in the global market, rather than passive participants and they benefit fully from their own resources and expertise.

Committed to cultural integrity, celebrating the stories, voices, and traditional knowledge of the people who steward these ingredients, earth & country delight in sharing the beauty of the world, while tending with care to the place we are rooted.

Earth & Country delivers luxurious skincare that  comes from nature itself, elevated by bio-nutrient-rich botanicals and the quiet brilliance of the natural world that produces real results.
