Yajna Organic Raw African Shea Butter 8 oz Ivory/White — 100% Pure Unrefined Cold-Pressed

This ivory/white, cold-pressed shea butter arrives in an 8 oz jar and keeps the natural vitamins, fatty acids, and antioxidants intact because it is unrefined and free from chemicals. Use it straight from the jar as an intensive moisturizer, blend it into DIY creams and balms, or warm a small amount to smooth into hair and scalp. Its thick, creamy texture melts on contact with skin and leaves a protective, non-greasy barrier that helps retain moisture.

How does Yajna shea butter hydrate dry skin?

Yajna shea butter delivers long-lasting hydration by supplying essential fatty acids and emollients that soften rough patches and support skin elasticity. Because the product is raw and unrefined, the natural tocopherols and sterols remain intact to help lock in moisture. It works well layered under lotions or used alone on problem areas like elbows, knees, and heels.

• Penetrates deeply to hydrate and reduce flaking
• Forms a protective barrier to prevent moisture loss
• Recommended for daily use on face and body, and for targeted dry spots

Can I use this shea butter on hair and scalp?

Yes — this raw shea butter is suitable for hair treatments and scalp care. A small amount warmed between palms smooths onto hair to add shine, tame frizz, and seal split ends. It also soothes dry, flaky scalps when massaged in as a pre-wash mask and left for 15–30 minutes before shampooing.

• Use as a pre-shampoo mask to nourish and reduce breakage
• Apply sparingly to ends to prevent frizz and retain moisture
• Massage into scalp to relieve dryness and support healthier-looking hair

How does this product perform in DIY formulations?

Yajna's Grade A unrefined shea butter blends smoothly with oils, butters, and waxes, making it a versatile base for handmade creams, balms, lotions, and soaps. Its stable texture helps thicken formulations and provides a creamy finish without synthetic stabilizers. Because it is additive-free, you control scent, consistency, and actives in your custom recipes.

• Melts into oil phases for creams and lotions
• Hardens gently in balm and soap recipes for a rich texture
• Makes a neutral base for adding essential oils and botanicals

What sets Grade A ivory/white shea butter apart?

This results in a product that performs effectively across cosmetic and haircare uses while remaining true to traditional raw shea qualities.
