Product Info:
Ugandan Shea Butter is a rich, ultra-nourishing butter known for its high oleic acid content, making it softer and more luxurious than West African Shea Butter. It deeply hydrates, soothes, and protects the skin while improving elasticity and reducing dryness. Its smooth texture makes it ideal for sensitive, dry, and mature skin. In hair care, it conditions and strengthens hair, leaving it soft and manageable. Ugandan Shea Butter is commonly used in body butters, lotions, balms, hair masks, and moisturizing skincare formulations.

- Suitable for body butters, creams, lotions, balms, lip care products, and hair masks.

- Melting point ranges from 28°C – 38°C (82°F – 100°F).
