Shea Butter, Natural Organic

Our Natural Shea Butter has been filtered for impurities & is the creamy butter extracted from the seeds (nut) of the karite tree. It's butter-like consistency melts on contact, giving it ideal barrier protection abilities. Beloved in Africa for centuries, our natural shea is imported from Ghana and provides the women in this village an opportunity to support themselves. Natural, wildcrafted shea butter manufactured to food grade standards in Ghana. It has a high fat content, which makes it a gorgeous, high grade yellow. This butter appeals to all skin types and is especially useful in mature or dry skin. Apply directly to the skin or incorporate in soap & body care products

*** A note about the fear of grainy shea. Shea is naturally grainy & this is not a "bad" thing, just the makeup of the end product. Our shea has a beautiful consistency, but shipping can alter the product (especially when the butter sits in a hot warehouse or shipping truck). To reduce graininess when working w/this product, handle shea butter as little as possible and practice a "slow heat, slow cool" method. Minimal heat reduces the risk of separation of the fats, which causes the crystallized granules to occur. If butter becomes grainy, heat just to melting point and stir to remove any small unmelted pieces. Let shea sit uncovered until it reaches room temp, but not quite a solid, then pour into desired individual containers & cool.
*** NOTICE: Please note that Shea Butter is derived from a nut, so rare individuals with an allergy to latex & nuts can have a reaction to Shea Butter. Keep this in mind when labeling your product.

Wonderful Natural Shea Butter. A hearty natural nutty scent that hydrates and nourishes deep into skin. Great in balms, lotions, soaps, creams, lip balms and slaves. Love using this product in making my products.

I absolutely love your organic shea butter and I will NOT be ordering from anywhere else! I have used from other sites which Im sorry but leaves a rancid smell and chunks of butter pieces in my body mousse. Thank you for having great products!!
