Description

Shea butter is obtained from the seeds of the Karite tree (Butyrospermum parkii) common in several African countries. This soft, pliant 'butter' is pressed from the certified organic seeds and then purified for use used for soaps, cosmetics and toiletries. 
This product has been ethically produced and sustainably refined to yield a white and practically odourless butter, ideal for cosmetic use.

We are now proud to offer our refined organic Shea Butter as certified fair for life.

Felt lovely on my skin

When I applied directly onto my skin it initially had a greasy feel but absorbed into my skin quite quickly. I used this as one of the products in moisturing bars that I made and was very pleased with the result

Enjoying using this refined as the odour is less and enables essential oils to shine
