    What it is

    Pure shea butter, naturally refined, then whipped by hand until it’s light and airy. It melts the moment it meets warm skin and leaves a soft, dewy finish that isn’t sticky.

    Ingredients

    Butyrospermum parkii (shea) butter. That’s the whole list. No water, no fillers, no preservatives added.

    Shea comes from the nut of the shea tree. If you have a nut allergy, try a small patch first or ask your doctor.

    How to use

    Scoop a little, warm it between your palms until it turns to oil, then press it into damp skin after a shower. A little goes a long way.

    Which size?

    The 5 oz is the everyday jar. The 8 oz is the full jar, made for daily all-over use or for sharing.

    Heat and storage

    Shea softens when it’s warm, like butter on the counter. If your jar melts, it still works the same. Let it set somewhere cool and it firms back up. Keep the lid on and store it out of direct sun.

    The differenceRead the label

    One ingredient. Read it twice.

    Most body lotions start with water and need emulsifiers and preservatives to hold together. Ours is just shea, whipped until it’s light. Nothing to dilute it.

    Why we love it

    One ingredient. Nothing to hide.

    Raw shea is dense and hard to spread. We refine it gently, then whip it by hand until it’s light as frosting, so it melts on contact instead of dragging.

    QuestionsShipping + returns ↗

    Asked at the kiosk.

    Will it melt in the Houston heat?

    It softens when it’s warm, like butter on the counter. If it melts, it still works the same. Let it set somewhere cool and it firms back up.

    Is it greasy?

    Use a small scoop on damp skin and give it a minute. It settles into a soft, dewy finish. Too much at once can feel heavy, so start small.

    Can I use it on my face?

    Many people do. Try a small patch first to see how your skin likes it.
