It doesn't get any better than this! Our gorgeous, refined Shea Butter (butyrospermum parkii) melts with your skin’s heat, making it perfect for direct use on parched, cracked, itchy, burning, or extremely dry skin. What does refined mean? After shea butter is harvested from the nuts of the African karité tree, the butter is filtered to remove impurities like the natural latex that's present in raw Shea Butter, resulting in a safer product with a lighter color and low odor. Impurities and allergens are removed, but all of the healing properties remain. Shea Butter is anti-inflammatory, helps skin retain moisture, and is loaded with antioxidants. This can make it a good choice for people with eczema and for people with all skin types who desire a soothing, highly moisturizing, natural product. Note: This is NOT a whipped butter, so if you are used to a whipped butter you will notice there is no air in our butter and it has a harder consistency than a whipped product.
Why do we refine our Shea Butter? Raw Shea Butter contains natural latex and people who are allergic to latex should avoid raw Shea Butter. Refining it removes the latex, making it safe for everyone! Refined Shea Butter is even safe for people with nut allergies. Allergens are proteins, and while shea butter does come from nuts, it’s made entirely of fat, so once the latex is removed, it’s allergen-free!
Skin Type: It's gentle enough for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
Directions: Our Shea Butter melts into skin easily with only the slight heat from your hands. Apply liberally anywhere and everywhere, as often as desired.
Other ways our customers are using this product: Some of our customers are melting our Shea Butter very gently in a bain Marie (water bath) and adding their favorite plant oils or a few drops of their favorite essential oils to make a naturally-scented butter with extra healing properties. There are dozens of ways to use pure Shea Butter!
