My Shea Butter
“After 10 years of creating organic and homemade beauty recipes on my blog, I wanted to launch my own small business offering all-natural raw ingredients like Shea Butter while having a positive impact on the Ghana African local community.
Using all-natural raw ingredients for beauty and skincare has always been at the core of my belief in a healthier lifestyle.
Every time you purchase my handcrafted and unrefined Shea butter, you are supporting the Ghana women coop which employs 95 women and buys shea nuts from more than 5,000 women in 44 communities!”

UNREFINED SHEA BUTTER SMELL, COLOR AND TEXTURE
- My Shea butter is semi-soft and melts on the contact of the skin. It has a light nutty and smokey scent that is characteristic of unrefined shea butter. It is an indicator that our shea butter has NOT been refined with high heat and chemicals such as hexane.
- The color might range from Ivory, cream, to grayish-yellow or light green which depends on the Shea nuts and the season they have been harvested. This does not affect in any way the premium quality.
