Using it to soften severely cracked heels and it's therapeutic properties in my skin care. It is known for its moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects, making it beneficial for conditions like dry skin, eczema, and minor wounds. I had ankle surgery and hoping it helps with the inflammation. It is greasy, be aware! Some people mix it with some other natural products to cut back on some grease. I am just applying it and rubbing it in and adding socks to let it sink in better. It has a slight smell that is not at all like perfume. It is not a wow smell or even nice but it is not awful by any means. I did notice that the sock will smell a bit unpleasant after it has had the shea butter in it but that just needs to be washed. Do not wash the socks with other items that might possibly get affected by the grease from the Shea Butter if you launder socks with other items. I always just wash socks with socks because I doubt the washing machine kills all of the bacteria. Handwashing is best but I sometimes get lazy and look for easier ways. It appears to be a high quality. I did read to NOT buy refined Shea Butter, this is NOT refined and I am happy. I saw several online articles recommend this brand as one of the better ones to choose from. Hopefully it is as good as it can get or close to that! We cannot trust magazines, etc. because they often don't test things thoroughly and reprint other people's opinions. I do think Shea butter does go bad after a time so keep it closed and check how to store it. I am keeping mine closed in the package that it came in, for now. I might transfer it to a glass dish (not plastic). Don't let air in if possible. Review: Very Good! - Very moisturizing. Great for body. I apply my lotion first then seal it in with this! Smell is low and doesn't smell bad kind of maybe like nutty if I had to describe it. I also use for overnight lip mask. ## Features - 100% Raw Unrefined Shea Butter – Pure African Grade A ivory shea butter in its natural, unrefined form with no added fillers or artificial ingredients. - Naturally Rich & Creamy Texture – Smooth, solid chunks that melt easily with warmth, making it simple to apply to skin, hair, hands, feet, and dry areas. - Multi-Purpose Moisturizer – Ideal for daily use as a body butter, hair butter, scalp moisturizer, lip balm base, DIY skincare ingredient, or soap-making supply. - Ivory African Shea Butter – Naturally sourced shea butter with a mild nutty aroma and creamy ivory color; texture and appearance may vary because it is raw and unrefined. - Great for DIY Beauty Recipes – Perfect for homemade lotions, body butters, creams, balms, conditioners, and natural skincare blends. - Convenient 8 oz Size – Comes in a 1/2 pound portion, great for personal care use, travel, sampling, or small-batch DIY projects. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07B67P9YC | | Active Ingredients | Shea Butter | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,744 in Beauty & Personal Care ( See Top 100 in Beauty & Personal Care ) #7 in Body Butters | | Brand | Yellow Brick Road | | Brand Name | Yellow Brick Road | | Container Type | Jar | | Country as Labeled | Egypt | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 30,809 Reviews | | Item Dimensions | 4 x 6 x 1 inches | | Item Form | Butter | | Item Volume | 8 fluid ounces | | Item Weight | 8 ounces | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 4 x 6 x 1 inches | | Manufacturer | YELLOW BRICK ROAD | | Manufacturer Part Number | 771003YBR | | Material Features | Natural | | Material Type Free | Chemical Free | | Model Name | Apple iPad Air Wi-Fi | | Number of Items | 1 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Moisturizes | | Product Benefits | Hydrating | | Recommended Uses For Product | Hydrating,Soothing | | Scent Name | Shea Butter | | Skin Type | Acne Prone | | Special Feature | Moisturizes | | Special Ingredients | Shea Butter | | Specific Uses For Product | Blemish, Wrinkles | | Target Use Body Part | Whole Body | | UPC | 853468008770 | | Unit Count | 8 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** Yellow Brick Road - **Item Volume:** 8 Fluid Ounces - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 4 x 6 x 1 inches - **Special Feature:** Moisturizes ## Images ![100% Raw Unrefined Shea Butter-African Grade a Ivory 1/2 Pound (8oz)… - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51sN6tuZwRL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can I freeze this?
