Product details

RA COSMETICS 100% Natural Unrefined Yellow Shea Butter is a single-ingredient, handcrafted 16oz jar of pure African shea that nourishes skin and hair without additives.

Harvested and cold-pressed in Ghana, this yellow shea butter arrives in its unrefined state so it keeps the original aroma, rich texture, and full nutrient profile. The jar contains only shea extracted from the nut of the African shea tree—no preservatives, no bleaching, and no added fragrances—making it an adaptable base for daily moisturizing, hair sealing, and DIY body care.

How will this shea butter help my skin daily?

Unrefined yellow shea has a dense, buttery texture that melts on contact and helps the skin retain moisture. It smooths rough patches, calms dry areas, and serves as a rich emollient for face and body routines.

  • Deeply conditions elbows, knees, and heels without synthetic additives
  • Melts into skin to form a protective, non-greasy-feeling layer
  • Natural fatty acids help support soft, supple skin texture

Can I use this on my hair and scalp?

Yes—its concentrated fats make it ideal for sealing moisture, reducing frizz, and adding sheen to dry hair. Use sparingly on ends, or warm a small amount and apply as a scalp treatment to help hydrate brittle strands.

  • Seals in hydration after washing or leave-in treatments
  • Softens and smooths split ends when used as a nightly sealant
  • Suitable for braid care and natural hair maintenance

What makes this product different from refined butters?

Unrefined yellow shea maintains its natural color, scent, and nutrient content because it skips high-heat refining and chemical processing. That means you get the butter closer to its traditional, handcrafted form with more of the original plant compounds preserved.

  • No bleaching or deodorizing—retains natural aroma and hue
  • Less processing preserves vitamins and fatty acids
  • Handcrafted sourcing supports small-scale Ghanaian producers

How should I incorporate it into my care routine?

Apply a small amount where you need intense moisture and allow it to absorb; warmer skin will help spread the butter thinly. It also blends well with carrier oils or essential oils if you prefer a lighter feel or a customized scent.

  • Warm between palms for a lighter application on the face
  • Mix with oils (jojoba, coconut) to create a softer body balm
  • Use as an overnight hair mask for improved manageability

Who is this for? RA COSMETICS Unrefined Yellow Shea Butter is suited to anyone seeking a simple, single-ingredient moisturizer: people with dry or textured hair, those with very dry skin areas, and DIY beauty enthusiasts who prefer a natural base for custom creams and balms. If you want a minimally processed, ethically sourced shea to add to a routine—or a versatile jar to keep in your bathroom or travel bag—this 16oz container delivers concentrated, multi-use nourishment in its traditional form.
