Refined Shea Butter (5 LB)

Refined Shea Butter (5 LB)

Our refined shea butter bulk is gently processed to remove its natural scent and color, resulting in a smooth, white butter that blends effortlessly into custom formulations. Rich in skin-supportive nutrients like vitamins A and E, it helps calm and restore dry, cracked, or irritated skin while promoting a more even tone and smoother texture.

This butter also supports hair health, working to soften strands, reduce frizz, and retain moisture at the root and scalp level. Its semi-soft consistency allows it to melt on contact with the skin, making it easy to use on its own or combine with other ingredients in skincare and hair care recipes.

Description

Our refined shea butter bulk is a naturally derived product that has been lightly processed to remove the natural scent and color found in raw shea butter. The result is a clean, white or off-white butter with a smooth texture and no chemical additives, making it ideal for a wide range of skincare and hair care formulations.

The refinement process involves washing the raw butter to eliminate debris, followed by non-chemical filtration and deodorization. This approach maintains the beneficial fatty acids and lipids while producing a neutral base that functions similarly to unrefined shea butter. It is especially useful in products where scent and color need to be controlled or customized.

Harvested from the nuts of the Vitellaria paradoxa tree in Ghana, long known as the “Tree of Life”, shea butter is widely appreciated for its versatile applications in skin and hair care, and often called “Mother Nature’s Conditioner” for its ability to nourish, soothe, and protect the skin.

Note: This refined shea butter bulk is made from shea nuts. If you have a nut allergy, consider exploring one of our other cosmetic butters.
Weight: 5 lb
Melting Point: 89 to 100°F

Melt a pea size amount of the butter between your hands and apply to your face or body. You may also mix this into homemade skin and hair care products.

In addition, you can use Shea Butter as a scalp treatment to moisturize the scalp and stimulate hair growth. It can also be used as a hair serum to tame frizzy hair and lock in moisture. For scalp: ensure scalp is damp, then melt a small amount of shea butter in your hands, and massage into the scalp. For a serum, dampen the hair, then melt a small amount of shea butter in your hands and scrunch it into or run it over your hair.

When not in use store Shea Butter sealed in its original packaging, or in a container such as a jar with a lid. Keep in a cool dry place, away from direct sunlight. If temperatures are above 75 degrees Fahrenheit, store in the fridge.

Love it!

My family, friends and new customers love it! I started out use unrefined but it doesn't hold the fragrance like refined Shea Butter does. I have gotten so many new orders after switching to refined Shea Butter.

I recommend this product

Great quality

I have had great experiences using the bulk Shea butter and cocoa butters from Better Shea Butter. I use them to make whipped Shea butters, coffee infused cocoa and Shea balms, and both sugar and salt scrubs for my massage business. I love that I can count on the quality of their products so I can guarantee the quality of mine.

Unrefined Shea Butter

This has been the best butter I’ve purchased. I blends, whips and whisk effortlessly. Makes my Buttah Whipps smooth and creamy!
