Vitellaria paradoxa · Unrefined Shea Butter · 50ml

Rich, creamy and beautifully uncomplicated, our Raw Organic Shea Butter is a wonderfully versatile botanical butter for dry skin, hair ends and simple handmade body-care preparations.

Extracted from the nuts of the African Shea tree (Vitellaria paradoxa), unrefined Shea Butter has a naturally soft, nutty aroma and a firm-to-creamy texture that melts with the warmth of your hands.

At Flowers from my Meadow, this little jar is a practical ingredient for uncomplicated external skin and hair rituals. The product is marketed as raw and organic; refer to supplier documentation if you require organic certification details.

Ingredient

Shea Butter (Vitellaria paradoxa). Consult the packaging for the complete current ingredient and certification details.

Ways to Use

  • Dry skin: warm a pea-sized amount between fingertips, then smooth over clean dry areas such as elbows, hands or heels.
  • Cuticles: massage a tiny amount around dry cuticles and fingertips.
  • Hair ends: rub a very small amount between hands and gently work into dry ends to add softness.
  • DIY botanical balms: use as the butter component in an appropriately developed external-use formulation.

Simple Meadow Ritual — Evening Hand Butter

Warm a small amount of Shea Butter between clean palms and massage over hands and dry cuticles before bed. For sensitive skin, start with a small patch and avoid applying over broken areas.

Texture & Storage

Unrefined Shea Butter can soften or melt in warm weather and solidify again as temperatures fall; texture can become grainy after temperature changes. Keep the jar closed and store in a cool, dry place away from heat and direct sunlight. Use dry, clean fingers or a suitable spatula.

Precautions

For external cosmetic use only. Patch test before use, especially with sensitive skin. Avoid contact with the eyes and avoid applying to irritated, infected or broken skin. Discontinue if a reaction occurs. If you have a known allergy to Shea or relevant nut-derived ingredients, consult an appropriate healthcare professional before use. Do not use as a substitute for treatment of eczema, burns or wounds, and obtain professional advice before using on infants.

Why does Shea Butter sometimes become grainy or change texture?
Unrefined Shea Butter can soften in warmth and firm up when cooler. Temperature changes may alter its texture or cause some graininess without necessarily changing the basic botanical material. Keep the 50ml jar closed and away from heat and direct sunlight.
What precautions apply to Shea Butter?
This is an external-use cosmetic ingredient. Patch test first, avoid eyes and irritated or broken skin, and discontinue use if sensitivity develops. If you have a known Shea-related allergy, check suitability before use.
