Recognized as one of the most versatile natural beauty ingredients, it can easily become a part of your daily regimen. It has been used for years in everything from natural homemade lotion bars, original magnesium body butter, homemade lip balms and healing salves. HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT SHEA BUTTER FOR BEST RESULTS: There are many different brands of Shea Butter in the market - it can be a challenge to decide which one is the best for you! While Shea Butter is known for its superior healing benefits, not all shea butter are created equal. Below you’ll find what you should look for in a high-quality shea butter. 100% PURE, UNREFINED & HANDMADE: Heating shea butter past a certain point through the refinement process strips out many of the therapeutic components and nutrients that are naturally present in Shea Butter. Our silky-smooth, creamy Shea Butter is 100% pure, unrefined and cold-pressed to ensure all of its nutrients and skincare properties are retained so you are able to reap all the highest benefits possible. ORGANIC & FREE OF GMOs, CHEMICALS & ARTIFICIAL INGREDIENTS: To buy the highest-quality shea butter, it is important to ensure it is in fact organic and FREE of GMOs and other artificial ingredients. Our Unrefined Shea Butter is Organic & FREE of GMOs, preservatives, parabens, additives, and other artificial chemicals and ingredients - so you can use it with complete peace of mind! RESPONSIBLY SOURCED FROM GHANA, AFRICA: Before you buy Shea Butter, it is essential to find out where it is sourced ethically. At PlantOrigin, we source our raw African Shea Butter from a wonderful women’s cooperative in Ghana who lovingly harvest the Shea nuts from indigenous Shea trees. Our process not only provides a dependable source of income for the women who are part of the co-op, it also contributes to the overall health of the local ecosystem and prevents soil erosion. GRADE A, IVORY, HIGH-QUALITY & FRESH: The color of shea butter is a good indicator of its quality and nutritional value. Because our Shea Butter is extracted from pure African shea nuts in Ghana WITHOUT heat or chemical alteration, it is ivory in color. But color is not the only indicator of quality. Our Shea Butter is also Grade A, meaning it has never been bleached or deodorized and is extracted from a higher quantity of shea nuts, making it naturally higher in nutrients compared to other brands. In fact it is so natural and high-quality that it even smells slightly nutty and earthy! RICH SOURCE OF OMEGA FATTY ACIDS, ANTIOXIDANTS & VITAMINS A, E & F: Because PlantOrigin Shea Butter is organic, Grade A and unrefined, it retains the most natural essential fatty acids, antioxidants and vitamins, especially vitamins A and E, which are partially lost in the other grades. NEVER TESTED ON ANIMALS & VEGAN-FRIENDLY: At PlantOrigin, we not only care about our customers, but the earth and all living beings on our planet. That’s why our organic shea butter is never tested on animals and vegan-friendly. THE PLANTORIGIN DIFFERENCE As with everything else, you must be careful about your source of shea butter. It’s easy to come across companies who claim their Shea butter as being organic, unrefined and advertised as a great source of income for communities in West Africa. To make sure these claims have any truth to them, always look out for the appropriate stamps on the product. Most shea butter brands available over cosmetic counters, pharmacies and stores are shea butter lotions. Inside the beautiful packaging, you may think it contains all Shea Butter, but in reality, shea butter is only an ingredient that makes up 2-5% of the actual product. Flip over the packaging, glance through the ingredients and you’ll see many other ingredients such as water, emulsifying waxes, preservatives, colorants, fragrances and other artificial ingredients. At PlantOrigin, our Shea Butter only consists of one ingredient: 100% Pure, Unrefined, Grade A, Organic Shea Butter to deliver the highest amount of nutrients and healing potential. Due to its purity and maximum nutritional value, it delivers the following features: Naturally hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic Rich source of Vitamin A for skin regeneration and firmness Boosts collagen and elastin synthesis to prevent wrinkles Anti-aging - fights free radicals to repair oxidative stress High in Vitamins E, F and omega fatty acids for increased moisture High source of cinnamate - potent anti-inflammatory and UVB absorber Natural anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties to prevent rashes Prevents hyperpigmentation and diminishes age spots Loaded with polyphenols - antioxidants with beauty benefits Increases skin elasticity to prevent fine lines and stretch marks Prevents sunburns and sun damage with natural SPF of 6-10 FREE of solvents such as hexane Shelf life of 2 years when stored in a cool, dry place Completely safe for men, women, young children and pregnant moms HOW IT WORKS MOISTURIZES SKIN & HAIR : The high concentration of natural vitamins and fatty acids in our Shea Butter makes it incredibly nourishing and moisturizing for the scalp and hair to help prevent dandruff. The high concentration of Vitamin E seals in moisture into the skin to prevent stretch marks, scarring and cellulite. It’s also perfect for dry heels, hands, rough elbows and knees.* REDUCES INFLAMMATION & DRYNESS : Due to the presence of cinnamic acid and its other healing properties, PlantOrigin Shea Butter is a natural anti-inflammatory. One compound in particular, lupeol cinnamate, was found to reduce skin inflammation and even potentially helped avoid skin mutations, according to research. This also makes it beneficial for some people with acne.* DIMINISHES WRINKLES & FINE LINES: PlantOrigin Shea Butter aids in the skin’s natural collagen production and contains oleic, stearic, palmitic and linolenic acids that protect and nourish the skin. Because it is Grade A and unrefined, it offers superior anti-aging benefits. With long term use, many people report skin softening and strengthening as well as wrinkle reduction.*

title: Natural Farms 1lb 100% African Shea Butter from Ghana
text: Product Description Rooted in Africa Shea butter has been used on the African continent for millenniums and is deeply rooted in the history and culture of wooded savanna from West Africa. Shea butter is mentioned in almost all historical documents in Africa, including a reference as early as Cleopatra's Egypt, which mentions caravans that carry shea butter clay jars for cosmetic use. Kings’ funeral beds were carved into wood of ancient shea trees, and shea butter has always been a staple of African pharmacology. The How Shea butter, commonly known as Karité, is derived from the Shea Nut Tree that grows in Africa's West Region. Shea butter is extracted from the African shea tree nut. The butter is a fatty oil which, at room temperature, remains solid but melts at body temperature. Shea butter in its raw form has an off white or ivory color which turns white when it is subjected to many processes. The shea tree nuts are big almost like the chestnuts. The nuts are collected and then dried and the outer shell is removed, the nut is then crushed by machines or one may use a pestle and mortar which was used in the traditional times in this case. The roasting process begins after crushing process. When roasted, the shea nut emits a smoky smell which is why it has the smoky scent as butter. The roasted shea nuts are the boiled in water that helps the butter to float onto it, making it ready for scooping and packing. So Many Uses Shea butter in its raw form contains a lot of properties which make it the best type of butter to treat many skin conditions. Shea butter can be used in all forms of massage, as it creates a frictionless but "easy grip" surface that allows the smoothest and most therapeutic deep tissue work. It is a great base for adding essential oils. Shea Butter cannot strip the skin of its natural oils because of its unsaponifiable origin and can help to stimulate collagen production. As such, it may be very helpful in alleviating wrinkles, scars, and burns. A Wonder Lotion Shea Butter is a hair dressing that can be used to moisturize a dry scalp and promote hair growth. Used as a pomade, it helps restrain the hairstyle and relax curls slightly. Shea Butter contains stigmasterol, the sterol known as the "anti-stiffness factor" which makes it useful in rheumatic cases. Shea butter contains a high cinnamic acid content that produces a mild natural sunscreen, around SPF-6. Shea butter has anti-inflammatory properties that help to relieve the skin from irritation. The properties help soothe the skin from sunburns, eczema, psoriasis as well as maintain skin elasticity and reduce aging process. Shea butter improves collagen production found in the skin thus maintaining the elasticity of the skin. Read more

Shea Butter comes from an indigenous African tree called Vitellaria paradoxa. These are wild-growing trees producing tiny, almond-like fruit that every May start falling on the ground. Villagers harvest the fruits, separate them from the nut, then boil and let the butter float to the surface. The butter is then milled and filtered for impurities, packaged in huge blocks, loaded on large boats, and shipped to our Austin, TX manufacturing facility for packaging.

text: Product Description TIME LONG AGO Shea Butter has been a vital cosmetic and skincare ingredient in Africa for centuries, if not thousands of years. It was utilized for a variety of reasons in ancient times, including beauty. Shea butter was used in ancient Egypt during Cleopatra's reign. She utilized shea butter for skin and hair care, and the butter was sent to her in big clay pots, according to legend. Shea butter appears to have been used by Queen Sheba as well. Due to vegetation changes and continuous semi-domestication, the country from which Shea came is little known. In 2016, anthropologists excavated in Burkina Faso and discovered shards of shea nut shells used in houses dating back to 100 CE. We can follow the origins of shea butter trade in ancient Egypt to about roughly 4300 years ago. We can also trace the trade in shea butter through documents kept by explorers during 1352–1353 and 1795–1797. WHERE IS IT PRODUCED Shea trees reach a height of 33-49 feet and have a highly branched, circular growth pattern. The thick, spongy bark is fireproof, shielding the trees from the frequent wildfires that decimate the surrounding vegetation. Trees begin bearing fruit after approximately ten to fifteen years, peaking at an average of 20 years, and producing nuts for up to 200 years. Shea fruits develop and ripen for four to six months after the trees bloom with creamy white petals for a month or two. When fully mature, the green fruits develop a rich brown color. Each tree may produce 30 to 45 pounds of fruit each year on average, with peak yields of up to 90 pounds. Each shea fruit is about 2", with a thin layer of nourishing pulp surrounding the large nut from which shea butter is extracted. THE RIGHT SEASON During the annual season, when food supplies are at their lowest and dietary energy is most needed, the fruit pulp is a nutritious and significant source of calories, vitamins, and minerals. The shea nuts are gathered in the rainy season, from May to August, this procedure takes many days of meticulous selection, gathering, drying, pounding, and kneading. THE CREDIT GOES TO Shea nuts are collected and processed in the same way they have been for millennia. Shea fruits that are ripe fall from the tree and are gathered before sunrise. Harvesting is traditionally done by local women, with children typically assisting before school. Women across Africa, typically working in collectives, have embraced shea butter production to achieve economic self-sufficiency as the popularity of shea butter has expanded around the world in recent decades. Most of the time, only women oversee the manufacturing Shea Butter. The credit goes to the women of Africa and their unrelenting work to bring us Shea Butter. Read more Production Methods There are two methods for processing Shea Butter. Crushing and solvent extraction are the two methods of extraction. Chemical extraction with hexane as the solvent is used to obtain most of the fatty contents. The solvent technique has the benefit of extracting the highest proportion of fatty acids. Shea Butter is produced at the lowest cost using this chemical technique. Shea Butter is now widely used in the chocolate business, and this chemical process has become standard. In the beauty industry, shea butter is used for its natural characteristics. Shea Butter without solvents is required by this industry's customers. Mechanical crushing produces a pure and natural butter with all of its intrinsic properties, but it does not allow for the complete extraction of the butter from the nut. Normally you would rather use Shea Butter produced using the crushing technique. This is the method chosen by Yellow Brick Road for our Raw Shea Butter. It is a family thing Various households in West Africa have their own traditional methods of obtaining shea butter, which have been passed down through centuries. In most families, the basic procedure is the same. To extract the butter, shea nuts, the fruit of the Shea Tree, are selected, cracked, roasted, and crushed. The shea butter is then cooked in water for several hours until it rises to the surface. After that, it's scooped into gourds to chill and set. Everything is done by hand. For ages, this method has been used. Although this method does not generate large amounts of shea butter, it is still the best approach to extract the butter because no chemicals or synthetic agents are required. Did you know The discarded shells are used for cooking fuel, while the seeds are cracked and roasted. Shea fruits are rich in carbohydrates, protein and fat as well as potassium and antioxidant phenols. The Vital Importance Women are economically empowered as a result of their involvement in the Shea Butter business, allowing them to make important decisions and investments in their lives, families, and communities. Shea butter has proven to be an important source of employment and income for women in rural areas. Furthermore, the Shea butter is sold to collect income for food, electricity bills, school fees, and health facilities, all with the goal of improving the welfare of their families. This procedure instills a sense of ownership and strength in women by allowing them to make decisions on their own, with little or no input from their male counterparts. Shea butter centers have also provided a platform for women to exchange ideas and enhance their lives and enterprises.

In skin care, shea butter soaps and shea butter lotions help to moisturize the body and face and are rich in vitamins and minerals.
