250g Organic Shea Butter Unrefined, 10 May 2012

I buy this shea butter from this supplier on a regular basis. I use it to as a base to make a lovely natural face cream not only for myself but my friends also. For those of you that are put off by it's smell and substance the 'Unrefined' part is the key. (It is the real deal, nothing fake just in it's natural state)

to make about 150ml of cream you need to use approximatley 125g of shea butter, this needs to be melted down very slowly so as not to damage the quality of the butter.

Excellent natural product for my Afro hair!, 23 Nov. 2012

I totally shaved my hair last year so my beautiful afro hair could start growing from scratch! When it got to about 5cm it became real problematic to look after, it would knot, tangle and all the rest. A friend suggested I try shea butter, so I purchased a few tins of it from Amazon, started applying it daily onto my hair and wow, BIG difference. My hair is now soft, tangle free, so manageable and now 12cm long! It looks so healthy and shiny too! Highly recommend shea butter!
