The Basa Body story began years ago with a single trip to Kenya.
We connected with wonderful, intelligent women working hard to feed their
families. Their small-scale enterprise was called Coast Coconut Farms, where
they produced virgin, organic coconut oil by hand. Intrigued by their commitment, skill, and
entrepreneurial spirit, we were determined to help these women tell their story
and grow their business. The result is BasaBody, named after the women of
Mombasa, Kenya, where Basa's coconut oil is produced.
As well as providing a sustainable income
and employment for the women of Coast Coconut farms, Basa Body also donates 10%
of its profits to humanitarian projects in Kenya. Yehu Microfinance is one of
our partner organizations and has helped over 18,000 women secure loans to start their own businesses
and help themselves and their families rise out of poverty.
All Basa Body products are made with Virgin Organic Coconut Oil
that is easily absorbed into the skin and has natural antioxidants that are
antimicrobial, antibacterial, and antifungal. Basa Body products help promote
healing and give skin a healthier, youthful appearance.
NO PARABENS
NO ARTIFICIAL FRAGRANCES

MY THOUGHTS
I’ve been using Basa Body Lotion for a couple weeks now and I
love it! The lotion applies easily since it contains coconut oil, yet it
absorbs quickly and does not leave my skin feeling greasy. Any time I start to
feel my skin drying out from the cold winter air here in Tennessee, I reach for
the Basa Body lotion and it refreshes my rough patches and leaves my skin soft
again. My favorite feature is the coconut scent because it smells fresh and
authentic unlike products with synthetic fragrances. For my especially dry and
itchy areas of skin I use the Basa Body Stick which is a little more oily and
waxy in consistency than the lotion, because all it contains is 100% virgin
coconut oil and beeswax. I love when products only contain a few ingredients
that I recognize vs. a long list of things I can’t pronounce. I’ve also used
the Basa Body Stick on my two year-old’s skin when his eczema flares up and it
seems to be soothing his problem areas effectively!
