Refined Shea Butter – Our bulk refined Shea Butter is most often used for cosmetics and soaps. The process to refine the butter involves extracting it from the Shea nut and filtering out any of the impurities. This results in a creamy off-white color and an extremely pure product. There is also less of an odor, which is why refined butter is the normal choice for the soap making and personal care industry.
Shea butter has been used for centuries by African men and women to promote healthy skin and hair. Over the past couple of decades, manufacturers of skin- and hair-care products in the United States have caught on to the many benefits it provides. This butter is sold full-strength with no additional ingredients. You'll also find it listed as an added ingredient in many skin moisturizers and hair conditioners.

How does Shea Butter benefit my skin?
Shea Butter is like food for the skin containing Vitamins A, E and F.  Vitamins A and E help the skin keep itself healthy.  These vitamins are especially important when it comes to helping sun damaged skin heal.  Vitamins A, E and F assist in staving off premature wrinkles and facial lines.  Vitamin F serves to protect the skin as well as help it heal.  It soothes rough, dry or chapped skin and helps soften dry or damaged hair.  Shea Butter is high in unsaponifiables (a type of fat).  Shea Butter will contain somewhere between 7-12% unsaponifiables.  To put that in perspective, avocado oil, a well known skin conditioner, has between 2-6%.  It is this amount of  unsaponifiables that is a contributing factor to Shea Butter being able to treat so many conditions.  Because Shea Butter easily penetrates the skin allowing the skin to breathe and not clogging pores it can deliver it's nutritional payload better than other man-made moisturizers.  Shea Butter also naturally contains cinnamic acid, a natural sun screen.  It actually does provide some degree of protection from the sun's harmful rays (still wear a sunblock though).  Shea Butter is a natural anti-inflammatory making it useful in treating things like rheumatism.
How does Shea Butter benefit my hair?
Shea Butter provides moisture to dry or damaged hair from the roots to the very tips, repairing and protecting against weather damage, dryness and brittleness.  It also absorbs quickly and completely into the scalp to rehydrate without clogging pores.  It is particularly beneficial for processed and heat-treated hair.  It is an excellent treatment for dry scalp. It restores luster to damaged hair. For this reason, Shea Butter is an excellent ingredient in hair moisturizers, shampoos and conditioners.
Other Benefits
In Africa, shea butter also is used as a nasal decongestant; Pobeda and Sousselier point to research that confirms its effectiveness in this area. Another study cited by these researchers states that shea butter can be used to ensure that active ingredients are effectively released onto the skin. This is one reason why so many manufacturers choose to use it in skin- and hair-care products.
