- Blend with Other Butters and Natural Oils: Yellow shea butter blends well with mango butter, cocoa butter, kokum butter and oils such as jojoba or sweet almond oil to customize the texture and richness of body butter, lotion, hair care and DIY recipes.

WHAT IS YELLOW SHEA BUTTER?
Our Yellow and Ivory Shea Butter are both unrefined, premium grade, filtered and clear of impurities. However in the milling process, our Ghanian women add a root from the African Borututu Tree to the Yellow Shea Butter. This root is responsible for the Yellow tint, it is believed to have more nutrients than the regular (ivory color) Shea Butter, and it is preferred by people affected by eczema and psoriasis.
Yellow Shea Butter is also a bit harder than the Ivory, and when used on fair skin, it can give it a light glow or slight tan look.
SHOULD YOU CHOOSE IVORY OR YELLOW SHEA BUTTER?
Ivory Shea Butter is the most popular choice, however Yellow Shea Butter has been gaining popularity with people affected by Eczema and Psoriasis because the yellow tends to take longer to absorb and is an amazing moisturizer with gradual absorption time that can leave your skin soft and hydrated for many hours. Please realize that the difference in results are slight and both Ivory and Yellow are 100% pure, unrefined and loaded with vitamins and nutrients that will rejuvenate your skin without the harmful side effects of chemically formulated lotions.
