Shea butter, what more can be said about shea? You can use it to cook with, you can use it on your skin, you can use it on your pets, you can put it in your edibles, you can use it in your hair, it makes great soap….so many uses for shea butter. We here at Shay and Company carry three versions of shea butter for you. We have virgin shea butter, a refined shea butter, and an organic virgin shea butter. All three versions have tremendous health and skincare benefits. Both virgin shea butters have a little more of a creamy color (although not the dark, yellow or brown of raw shea butter), and a beautiful nutty smell, just one is certified organic and one is not. Both have that excellent creamy feel of virgin shea butter. The refined shea butter is a little harder and has less smell than the virgin butter.
One of the coolest things I have learned about shea butter over the years is that shea butter in Africa is considered a food item. Food items in Africa are controlled by women only, not men, so all profits made from the harvesting and sale of shea butter goes to the women. Shea butter is very thick, even when it is heated it is a heavier weight butter. Shea butter products retain their texture and skin hydration very well as it is said that shea is about 60% fat. This makes shea butter an excellent ingredient for creating soap bars and for creating body moisturizers.
