Help Me Choose: Tree Nut Free

Tree nut allergy, one of the most common allergies, can cause everything from a severe, potentially fatal, allergic reaction called anaphylaxis to localized dermatitis.

A person with an allergy to one type of tree nut has a higher chance of being allergic to other types.

Since most of our products do NOT contain tree nut ingredients, the table below lists the ingredients and the products that may cause nut allergy.

Products NOT to use if you have nut allergies

Since we proudly list every ingredient in all of our products, you can always scan the ingredients list for each product. Please double-check the ingredients on the product pages, we sometimes change recipes!

*A Note About Shea Butter, Illipe Butter, Kokum Butter, and other possible nut allergy triggers:

• We have not included Shea Butter products in our Nut Allergy avoidance list above.
• The Shea Nut is distantly related to the Brazil Nut, but the relationship of proteins from this nut to other nuts or peanuts has not been studied well.
  
  

There are other natural butters that are derived from the kernel or nut of a tree such as Illipe, Kokum, and even Mango butter or Coconut Oil. The information as to whether or not these products can cause an allergic reaction in people with tree nut allergies is often quite contradictory.

There are studies that show that some products/ingredients that are related to nuts or nut-producing trees may trigger nut allergies in severely sensitive people.

If you or someone in your family has any problems with tree nut allergies or other sensitivities PLEASE do an allergy patch test before using any new products to be safe.

Use Our "Ingredient Preference Filter"

If you are looking for one specific type of product like a soap or a lip balm, on the left side of any product collection page there are filters to help you narrow down your product search. Under "ingredient preference" you can search for "shea butter free" products. 

We do not have a "Tree Nut Free" ingredient preference since allergies are often unique to individuals. So please read the product ingredient list. 

People with severe allergies--please note: If you have severe anaphylactic-type reactions to ANY of the ingredients in ANY of our products, please do not buy our products. We have dedicated soap rooms and product rooms that are kept meticulously clean, but we cannot guarantee against possible cross-contamination of individual ingredients.
