Plant Guru Raw African Shea Butter 16 oz Ivory — 100% Pure Unrefined Moisturizing Butter

Plant Guru Raw African Shea Butter 16 oz is a 100% pure, unrefined ivory butter made from Ghanaian shea nuts to deeply moisturize skin, condition hair, and support DIY skincare projects.

Harvested and hand-processed in Ghana, this unrefined shea butter arrives in a convenient 16-ounce jar with a creamy, ivory texture and the naturally mild aroma of raw nut butter. It contains a natural profile of fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins that help restore moisture and improve skin and hair manageability without added fragrances, colors, or stabilizers. Because it’s unrefined, the butter retains its native nutrients and is suitable for a wide range of cosmetic and craft uses, from daily body care to soap and lip-balm formulations.

How do I use this shea butter on dry skin and what results can I expect?

Warm a small amount between your fingertips and massage it into focused dry areas—elbows, knees, hands, and feet. The butter melts on contact and spreads evenly to create a protective, emollient layer that helps reduce visible roughness and keeps skin feeling softer for longer.

• Apply after bathing to lock in moisture.
• Use as an overnight treatment for cracked heels and hands.
• Blend with oils for a lighter daily lotion.

Can I use Plant Guru Shea Butter for my hair and scalp?

Yes—this shea butter can be used as a deep-conditioning treatment, scalp moisturizer, or styling aid for frizz control. It absorbs into hair shafts and the scalp to help reduce dryness and improve manageability, especially for processed or heat-exposed hair.

• Work a small amount from roots to ends for a leave-in gloss.
• Mix with carrier oils for a pre-shampoo mask.
• Apply sparingly to the scalp to help with dryness without heavy buildup.

Is this product safe for making DIY soaps, balms, and cosmetics?

Plant Guru Raw African Shea Butter is an excellent base ingredient for homemade skincare and cosmetic formulations because it is unrefined and free of additives. It blends well with butters and oils, offering stable hardness to soaps and a creamy texture for lip balms and body butters.

• Use in cold-process or melt-and-pour soap recipes.
• Combine with beeswax and oils for custom balms or salves.
• Measure melting points when substituting in established formulas.

Where does this shea butter come from and how is it processed?

The shea butter is sourced directly from a small village in Ghana, where local harvesters extract the butter from shea nuts using traditional hand-processing methods. Because it’s unrefined, the product keeps its natural color, scent, and nutrient profile, reflecting minimal processing between the nut and the jar.

• Imported from Ghana, harvested by local producers.
• Cold-pressed or hand-processed to preserve nutrients.
• Sold without synthetic additives, fragrances, or colors.

Who is this for: Plant Guru Raw African Shea Butter is made for people who want a natural, ingredient-focused moisturizer and conditioning treatment—ideal for dry-skin sufferers, those with textured or processed hair, and crafters creating handmade soaps, balms, or body products. It’s also a good option for anyone seeking an unrefined, multipurpose butter with straightforward sourcing and no unnecessary additives. Because the butter is concentrated, a little goes a long way, making it practical for regular body care routines, targeted treatments, and creative formulations in small-batch skincare projects.
