Benefits & Uses What Our Raw Shea Butter Does For You The quick answer: Raw unrefined shea butter provides intense moisture, soothes inflammation, supports natural healing, and offers anti-aging benefits through its rich concentration of fatty acids, vitamins A and E, and natural cinnamic acid esters that aren't found in refined alternatives. For Your Skin — Deep Nourishment & Protection Intense hydration: Rich fatty acids penetrate deeply to moisturize and soften even the driest skin, creating lasting smoothness Anti-aging power: Natural vitamins A and E support cell regeneration and collagen production, helping reduce fine lines and wrinkles Healing support: Soothes and calms irritated skin, reducing redness from eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis Natural sun protection: Contains cinnamic acid esters providing SPF 3-4 protection plus anti-inflammatory benefits (lost in refined alternatives) Non-comedogenic care: Won't clog pores, making it safe for all skin types including oily and acne-prone skin For Your Hair — Moisture & Strength Scalp health: Moisturizes dry, flaky scalp and supports healthy hair growth Deep conditioning: Penetrates hair shaft to restore moisture and reduce breakage Protection: Forms a protective barrier against heat styling and environmental damage For Your Formulations — Professional Quality Base Cosmetic formulation: Ideal base for body butters, face creams, lip balms, and healing salves Soap making: Adds luxurious creaminess and moisturizing properties to handmade soaps Perfect blending: Combines beautifully with carrier oils and essential oils while maintaining therapeutic properties Who You Are & How You'll Use It Who You Are How You'll Use It Home Users & DIY Enthusiasts Daily moisturizer for face and body, natural anti-aging treatment, healing balm for dry hands and feet, hair mask for moisture Small Batch Makers & Artisans Body butter base, face cream formulations, lip balm ingredient, healing salve foundation, handmade soap luxury additive Professional Formulators Premium emollient for natural skincare lines, stable base for cosmetic formulations, label-friendly single ingredient Commercial Manufacturers Bulk ingredient for soap production, large-scale cosmetic manufacturing, wholesale distribution to retailers Year-Round Versatility: Use raw shea butter in harsh winter months for extra protection against cold, dry air, and continue through summer as a natural moisturizer that won't feel heavy. It's equally effective for healing sun exposure and providing daily hydration. 💡 Struggling with persistent dry skin that won't respond to commercial lotions? Raw unrefined shea butter penetrates deeper than refined alternatives because it retains all its natural fatty acids and vitamins. The traditional processing method preserves nutrients that are destroyed during industrial refining. Q: What makes raw unrefined shea butter different from refined shea butter?A: Raw unrefined shea butter retains all its natural vitamins, minerals, and beneficial compounds including cinnamic acid esters that provide natural sun protection and anti-inflammatory benefits. Refined shea butter is processed with chemicals and high heat, which destroys over 75% of these bioactive ingredients, leaving you with less therapeutic value and a neutral scent and color. How to Use & DIY Tips How to Use Raw Shea Butter: Simple to Use. Easy to Love. The quick answer: Warm a small amount between your palms until it melts, then apply directly to clean, slightly damp skin or hair. You can use it as-is for intense moisture, or melt it gently with carrier oils and essential oils to create custom body butters, face creams, and healing balms. Quick Application Methods 1. Direct Application — The Simplest WayScoop a small amount (pea-sized for face, quarter-sized for body), warm it between your palms for 5-10 seconds, and massage into clean skin. For best absorption, apply to slightly damp skin right after showering. Use morning and night, or whenever your skin needs extra love. 2. Melted & Blended — Custom FormulationsGently melt shea butter in a double boiler (never microwave), then blend with your favorite carrier oils like jojoba, sweet almond, or coconut oil. Add essential oils for fragrance. Let it cool and solidify for whipped body butter, or use immediately as a massage oil. 3. Hair Treatment — Deep ConditioningWarm a tablespoon between your palms and work through damp hair from mid-length to ends, or massage directly into your scalp. Leave on for 20-30 minutes (or overnight with a shower cap), then shampoo as usual. Your hair will feel softer and more manageable. Easy DIY Recipes 💚 Simple Whipped Body Butter 1/2 cup raw shea butter 2 tablespoons jojoba or sweet almond oil 10 drops essential oil (lavender or vanilla) Directions: Melt shea butter gently, let cool slightly, add oils, then whip with a mixer until fluffy (5-7 minutes). Store in a jar. Makes: About 6 oz of luxurious body butter perfect for daily use. 💚 Quick Face Cream 2 tablespoons raw shea butter 1 tablespoon rosehip oil 2-3 drops tea tree or frankincense oil Directions: Melt shea butter, mix in oils, pour into small container. Perfect for: Evening face treatment that targets aging and supports skin repair overnight. 💚 Healing Lip Balm 1 tablespoon raw shea butter 1 tablespoon beeswax 1 teaspoon vitamin E oil Directions: Melt together, pour into lip balm tubes or small tins, let solidify. Makes: 4-6 lip balms that heal chapped lips instantly. Pro Tips for Best Results Application timing: Apply to damp skin for better absorption — the moisture helps carry nutrients deeper Storage matters: Keep in a cool place (60-70°F) and it'll last 2+ years without losing effectiveness Less is more: Start with less than you think you need — shea butter is incredibly rich and spreads easily Melting point magic: If your shea butter melts in hot weather, just refrigerate briefly to re-solidify — quality isn't affected Patch test first: Always test on a small area before full application, especially if you have sensitive skin or allergies If Things Go Wonky Sometimes raw shea butter develops a grainy texture (called "bloom") if it melts and re-solidifies too quickly. This doesn't affect quality or effectiveness — just gently melt and cool slowly to restore smoothness. If you notice any unusual odors or color changes after extended storage, that's your sign it's time to order fresh. 💡 Bonus Tip: For extra-dry areas like elbows, heels, and knees, apply a generous layer of shea butter before bed and cover with cotton socks or long sleeves. You'll wake up with baby-soft skin. Q: How much raw shea butter should I use?A: For face application, use about a pea-sized amount warmed between your palms. For body, a quarter-sized portion covers a large area since shea butter spreads beautifully. For hair treatments, use 1-2 tablespoons depending on length and thickness. Remember, a little goes a long way with raw unrefined shea butter. Compare & Choose Raw Unrefined Shea Butter vs. Refined Alternatives: Compare & Choose The key difference: Raw, unrefined shea butter preserves all natural vitamins, minerals, and beneficial compounds through traditional hand-made methods, while refined shea butter is processed with chemicals and high heat that destroys over 75% of bioactive ingredients, removing therapeutic value, natural aroma, and color. Detailed Comparison Feature Our Raw Unrefined Shea Butter Refined Shea Butter Ultra-Refined (Commercial) Processing Traditional, hand-made Chemical solvents, heat processing Heavy refinement, bleaching, deodorizing Origin Northern Ghana women's cooperatives Often unknown/mixed sources Industrial farms, various countries Purity 100% pure, single ingredient May contain additives Often mixed with fillers Nutrients Full vitamins A, E, F, cinnamic acid 50-75% nutrient loss 75-90% nutrient loss Aroma Natural nutty, earthy scent Faint or no scent Completely odorless Color Ivory to light yellow (natural) White to pale cream Pure white Ethics Fair trade, direct from artisans Usually unknown No traceability Traceability Direct supply chain, cooperative-sourced Multiple suppliers Mass production Price Point Premium value for quality Mid-range Cheapest option Why Choose Unrefined Shea Butter? Raw unrefined shea butter keeps all the good stuff nature intended. The traditional handmade processing method used by women in Ghana preserves cinnamic acid esters (natural sun protection and anti-inflammatory compounds), vitamins A and E (cell regeneration and collagen support), and essential fatty acids (deep moisture and healing). When shea butter is refined, high heat and chemical processing destroy these delicate compounds, leaving you with a neutral-looking product that lacks therapeutic power. Why Choose Baraka? 🌍 Direct from Source: We work directly with women's cooperatives in Northern Ghana, ensuring traceability from forest to your hands — no middlemen, no mystery ingredients 👐 Traditional Craftsmanship: Handmade using centuries-old methods that preserve maximum nutrients and healing properties ⚖️ Fair Trade Verified: Community-certified fair trade means your purchase directly supports women artisans and their families 🌱 Naturally Organic: Traditional methods mean no pesticides, chemicals, or additives — just pure shea butter the way it's been made for generations 📦 Quality at Scale: Whether you're buying 50g for personal use or 25kg for commercial production, every batch maintains the same handmade quality Q: Is raw unrefined shea butter better than refined shea butter?A: Raw unrefined shea butter is better when you want maximum therapeutic benefits — the full vitamins, natural sun protection, and healing compounds. Refined shea butter works if you need a completely odorless, white ingredient for formulations where you don't want any natural scent or color. For skincare benefits, raw unrefined is always superior because it retains all the nutrients that make shea butter special. Sizes & Bulk Guide Sizes & Bulk Guide: Choose Your Perfect Amount Not sure which size? Start with 100g if you're trying raw shea butter for the first time or using it occasionally. Choose 500g-1kg if you'll use it daily or want to make DIY products regularly. Select bulk sizes (5kg+) for commercial production, soap making businesses, or wholesale distribution. Size Comparison Size Ideal For Approximate Duration/Usage Value 50g (1.7 oz) First-time users, travel size, patch testing 2-4 weeks of facial use Try before larger commitment 100g (3.5 oz) Personal daily use, small DIY projects 1-2 months of daily application Perfect starter size 250g (8.8 oz) Regular users, DIY enthusiasts, multiple uses 3-4 months of regular use Better value per ounce 500g (1.1 lb) Families, frequent DIY makers, small batch artisans 6+ months personal use, 3-5 DIY batches Great value for regular users 1kg (2.2 lb) Serious DIY makers, small production runs 10-15 DIY product batches Professional quantity, home price 5kg+ (11+ lb) Small businesses, soap makers, commercial formulators Production-scale ingredient Best per-ounce value, wholesale pricing Smart Reasons to Go Bigger 💰 Better value: Larger sizes offer significantly better price per ounce — bulk buyers save 30-40% compared to small sizes 🏠 Always have it: With a 2+ year shelf life, buying larger means you'll never run out when you need it most ♻️ Less packaging: Larger containers mean less waste and a smaller environmental footprint per ounce ⏰ Long shelf life: Raw shea butter stays fresh for years when stored properly, so bulk buying won't result in waste 📈 Scale your business: Bulk options (5kg-25kg) let you grow your artisan business or expand your product line without supply interruptions Decision Guidance Still not sure? Try the 100g size first to experience the quality and texture of our raw unrefined shea butter. Once you're hooked (and you will be), move to 500g or 1kg for regular personal use and DIY projects. If you're running a business or making products to sell, start with 5kg and scale up from there. 💰 Smart Shopper Tip: The 1kg size offers the best value for personal users and DIY enthusiasts — it's affordable enough for home use but substantial enough to last all year and make multiple product batches. Our Shea Butter Story Our Shea Butter Story: From Northern Ghana to You In the vast savanna landscapes of Northern Ghana, wild shea trees have provided nourishment and healing for communities for thousands of years. The region's climate and soil create ideal conditions for shea trees to thrive, producing nuts with exceptional oil content and nutrient density. This is where our story begins — in the shade of these sacred trees, where women gather nuts that will become your shea butter. The women who handcraft your shea butter aren't just workers — they're skilled artisans carrying forward knowledge passed through generations. These women's cooperatives represent dozens of villages across Northern Ghana where mothers, daughters, and grandmothers work together, sharing traditional techniques their ancestors perfected over centuries. Every woman you support through your purchase has a name, a family, and dreams she's working toward through her craft. Traditional shea butter making is an art form that takes patience, skill, and deep knowledge of the process. The women crack each nut by hand, roast them carefully over controlled heat, grind them into paste, and hand-knead the mixture with water until the pure butter rises. This traditional hand-made method takes significantly longer than industrial processing, but it preserves every beneficial compound — the vitamins, the fatty acids, the healing properties that make shea butter remarkable. They're not just making a product; they're preserving cultural heritage and ensuring the highest quality reaches your hands. Your purchase creates real impact that ripples through entire communities. When you buy Baraka shea butter, you're providing fair wages that help women achieve economic independence, send their children to school, access healthcare, and invest in their futures. You're supporting sustainable harvesting practices that protect wild shea forests from deforestation. You're enabling cooperatives to build better facilities, access clean water, and create educational opportunities for the next generation. This isn't charity — it's trade that honors dignity, values craftsmanship, and recognizes the true worth of their labor. We practice fair trade not as a marketing term but as a fundamental commitment. Our pricing ensures women earn living wages, we maintain transparent supply chains with direct relationships, and we refuse to participate in exploitation that plagues much of the commodity trade. The naturally organic nature of their traditional methods (no pesticides, no chemicals, just hands and knowledge) comes from centuries of sustainable practices, not from expensive certifications designed for Western markets. When you smooth our raw shea butter onto your skin, you're connected to women in Northern Ghana whose hands shaped that exact butter — that's the journey from cooperative to your home. Ingredients & Specs Ingredients & Specifications: Pure & Simple Ingredients: 100% Pure Raw Unrefined Shea ButterLatin Name: Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) ButterCommon Names: Shea butter, karite butter, African butter, Ghana butter, ori What Makes It Work Raw unrefined shea butter is naturally rich in oleic acid (40-55%) for deep moisture penetration and skin softening, stearic acid (35-45%) for skin protection and barrier support, linoleic acid for skin repair and inflammation reduction, and cinnamic acid esters that provide natural SPF 3-4 sun protection plus anti-inflammatory benefits. It's also loaded with vitamins A and E that support cell regeneration and protect against environmental damage. These compounds work together to moisturize, heal, protect, and rejuvenate your skin naturally. What You'll Experience Appearance: Creamy ivory to light yellow color with a rich, dense butter texture that's solid at room temperature Texture: Smooth and buttery, melts easily at body temperature (around 89-113°F), spreads beautifully on skin Aroma: Subtle natural nutty, slightly smoky scent — this is the real, unrefined aroma (not a defect!) Natural Variations: Handmade means slight color and aroma differences between batches — this shows authenticity, not inconsistency Keeping It Fresh Store: Cool, dry place away from direct sunlight (a cabinet or drawer works perfectly) Ideal Temperature: 60-70°F (15-21°C) prevents repeated melting and re-solidifying Shelf Life: 2+ years when properly stored — raw shea butter is remarkably stable Note: If it melts in hot weather, simply cool to re-solidify — quality and effectiveness remain unchanged Signs of Quality Premium raw unrefined shea butter should have a creamy ivory to light yellow color (pure white means it's been refined), a subtle nutty aroma (no smell means processing removed it), and a smooth texture that melts quickly on your skin. If you see these characteristics, you're experiencing authentic, traditionally processed shea butter.
