Shea Butter

Shea butter is made from the nuts of the shea tree. The fat from the nuts are collected by a process of smashing, whipping, and heating the nuts in various ways that ultimately create a creamy, whipped type of lotion or paste. Shea butter has been used in Africa for many centuries because it is edible and also serves as a skin moisturizer and hair conditioner. Many types of shea butter can be formed into various consistencies and shades. There are four types of shea butter, raw shea butter, unrefined shea butter, refined shea butter, and ultra refined shea butter. The best shea butter is usually unrefined and has a more yellowish tint; however, just because a shea butter product you buy is white does not mean it is lower in quality. There are different uses for the different types of shea butter but here at YoungsGA we offer a various amount of bulk, cheap wholesale shea butter that is right for you.
