100% shea butter

Beenie

Does anyone know where I can reliably buy this? I've looked at some websites but am not sure about the quality or reliability of the products and wondered if anyone had found a good supplier.

I usually get the tin from L'Occitane but their prices are v.high and my funds are low these days, but that's the sort of standard I'm looking for - no perfume, solid consistency, melts on contact.

I ordered a sample of raw unwhipped shea butter to try out for DD's sensitive excema prone skin. My first experience with 100% shea butter but definitely seems to be the real thing! Very rich and moisturising. Sadly DD is a 13 yo sceptic and complained about the smell and wouldn't touch it. I'm using it and think it's great.

I second the Akoma recommendation. The unrefined Shea Butter is lovely. I think the prices are quite reasonable too.
