Overall works amazing in my products
I really liked this Shea butter overall but I did my research and learned that there is no such thing as yellow Shea butter. The real color is ivory! If it’s white, then it has lost most of its benefits because it is processed and refined. If it’s ivory and unrefined, then it’s most likely the real deal, if it’s yellow like this one, it is still real but in the process of making Shea butter they add palm oil which dyes it a dark yellow/orange. Palm oil is full of vitamins as well as good for the skin so it’s not a bad thing, but it is an additive. Yellow Shea butter stains more, but is also more moisturizing and less clumpy too use! You’re welcome and I hope this was helpful to you guys!
