Shea Butter Benefits
Pure Shea Butter first became popular in Africa where it is widely used in cooking and medicinal purposes. Eventually it made its way to the west as more people discovered its amazing emollient qualities. Shea Butter has a high level of non-saponifiables and other qualities that makes it a popular ingredient in many cosmetic supplies, lotions, and other skin care products.
Shea Butter can improve skin elasticity, which has made it popular with both men and women. Today it is used as an essential ingredient for belly butters and stretch mark creams.
More than that, though, Shea Butter can also block the sun’s ultraviolet rays, so you will often find it as a major ingredient in sun block products, lip balms, and lip gloss. It can also be used as an anti-inflammatory and humectants which makes it very useful in medicinal ointments and creams.
Types of Shea Butter
At Bulk Apothecary we offer a couple different kinds of Shea Butter to fit your exact needs.
Refined Shea Butter – Our bulk refined Shea Butter is most often used for cosmetics and soaps. The process to refine the butter involves extracting it from the Shea nut and filtering out any of the impurities. This results in a creamy off-white color and an extremely pure product. There is also less of an odor, which is why refined butter is the normal choice for the soap making and personal care industry.
Unrefined Shea Butter – We also sell butter that is left unrefined. This gives it a pale yellowish color and has the typical odor normally associated with Shea Butter.
Please note: Our 55 lb blocks of organic naturally refined and unrefined shea butter are certified organic. Our smaller sizes are not yet certified organic. We are in the process of having them certified.

This time it is different
I always order the refined she butter because 1. It has No smell; 2. It's creamy texture. However, this time the texture was different. It is no as creamy and soft as it used to be. It has the same sandy roughly texture like the unrefined one.
It does still moisturize excellentlly. I just love it in the winter. I hope it go back to its creamtexture. I wanted to order more but after i received this i changed my mind and thought to wait. -
Love the Shea Butter
I purchased some Shea butter, and made some whipped Shea butter. I added some of your other products in it,and I love it. The butter is so creamy and smooth on my skin. I will be purchasing more.

Wonderful stuff!
I whipped this shea butter, a little olive oil, and a few drops of essential oil in my kitchenaide mixer. It's awesome to put on before going to bed. Your skin will never dry out! Was great for Christmas gifts too!

Great product, fast shipping
I come to bulkApothecary when I am looking for quality, high end ingredients in large quantities. I was very happy with their quick service and shipping. The Shea Butter here is top of the line and exactly what they describe. The only thing I would change is to have it come in a 5 gallon bucket rather than wrapped in plastic in a cardboard box. Thank you bulkapothecary for great ingredients!

Great product! Just know that the 55lbs size comes in a bag in a box, not a bucket
I’ve been using BA’s shea for years and I love it.
I’d just ordered the 55lb size for the first time because the gallon-bucket was out of stock. Plus, it does bring the cost down when looking at the big picture.
I do with I’d had a heads up that it doesn’t come in a 5-gallon bucket like the large size of coconut oil does. I have no idea how I’m suppose to store this to keep it airtight like the buckets cuz it’s going to take me a while to get thru all of this and I’d like it to stay as fresh as possible.
So BA... why not a bucket? You can do it in the1-gallon size, but why not the 5-gallon? -
My fave
This is my absolute favorite shea butter!

Excellent product
I love that this shea butter is packaged in a tightly resealable jar and is easily scoop-able which makes it very easy to use. It's odorless and I have never had any problem with it being grainy. Well worth the purchase!

Awesome Service and Products
I have been purchasing from Bulk Apothecary for the last 8 months and am thrilled with the quality of their products and service. I purchased both refined and unrefined Shea Butter to test them in my home made creams. Both had a wonderful texture that did not crystalize.
