Product Description
Refined Shea Butter Sandalwood Fragrance qith jojoba oil and Vit E.
Smooth dreamy body butter of pure refined shea butter scented with my own sandalwood blend. Essential and fragrance oils are used to create this fragrance that appeals to both men and women.
Your skin will drink in the butter to seal in moisture and aid in restoring suppleness.
Shea Butter Information
The high quality refined shea butter is processed using the laborious traditional method. The hand-collected nuts are similar in size to almonds. The nuts are removed from their shell and placed in a large mortar, pounded by hand to shred and then ground with a stone to a fine paste. The paste is initially the color of dark chocolate. It is washed with water for a number of times until the chocolate color turns into the rich creamy color of the final product. At that point it is boiled in a clarifier to reduce the moisture before being packaged for shipping.
Ultra refined Shea Butter begins the same as the unrefined. But more steps are taken. Filters are used to further process the unrefined butter until it is bleached, odorless, white and creamy.
A little shea goes a long way. Simply soften a tiny amount in the palm of your hand and apply. As this is a butter, you will note it is heaver than most lotions. It takes a little while to be absorbed into the skin, but the wait is worth it!
Price is for one 2 fl. oz. tin

Inspiration/Story Behind This Product
My customer's requests for great product for dry skin - This is perfect!
The purchase of this shea supports the Women's Project in Ghana Africa. I only purchase fair trade shea butters.
This shea is harvested fresh within several weeks of my receiving the shipment. The proceeds go directly to support an African village in Ghana. The women of the village harvest the nuts, process the butter by hand using traditional mortal and pestle. No chemicals are used. (To get the pure white shea butter, the raw butter is processed with filters, I also sell scented and unscented refined shea.)
When you visit my display at the store, look for the photos of the Ghana Women's Project.
Materials Used
refined shea butter, organic jojoba oil and Vit E., sandalwood essential and fragrance oil
