  • DIY: whip with coconut, olive or jojoba oil for your own body butter.

Size & weight note

Shea butter is a natural product that is packed by hand. Sizes refer to the approximate net weight of the product. Natural shea butter varies in density and can settle, soften or firm up with temperature changes, so the fill level and exact weight may vary slightly from container to container. This is normal and does not affect quality.

Frequently asked questions

What does raw shea butter smell like?

Unrefined shea butter has a natural, nutty, slightly smoky scent. This is a sign it hasn't been heavily processed.

Why is my shea butter grainy?

Temperature changes can make natural shea butter grainy. It melts smoothly on your skin and works just the same.

Why doesn't the tub look completely full?

Shea butter is sold by approximate weight, not volume. Natural butter can settle or shrink slightly.

Where can I buy raw shea butter near me?

Visit Yado African & Caribbean Market at 1651 E 87th St, Chicago, or order online for fast U.S. shipping.

I have eczema and used the cream for the first. The itching stopped and the outbreak did decrease. I will continue to use the product.

Customer video review of Meta Title: Jack n Jill Lausanne Wafer | Crispy & Creamy Snack

The cookies got wet, in my opinion; they're dry and have yellow residue on them. Please make sure we protect them properly before shipping them here.

Not sure but I wanted to try the product because I heard good reviews from other people, but I’ve never bought from this actual store and it made me break out in hives.

Customer photo review of Cocoa butter Hand and Body Cream 460ml by Princess Cocoa Paa

I bought this in Ghana 6 years ago, and was devastated that I couldn't find it anywhere in the US. Its great that I found a site that holds it. Its extremely moisturizing and silky, it makes my skin feel and smell fantastic. It has a strong coco butter scent, but it isn't pure coco butter. So if you're looking for that, this isn't the product for you. Its like a coco butter lotion.

Customer photo review of Teo Sheito Hot Pepper Sauce | Authentic Ghanaian Heat

My order arrived on time and was surprisingly well packaged. I was worried because I’ve ordered from other African sellers online, and my packages have arrived broken due to poor packaging or without tracking updates. I used this order as a test, and I’ll definitely be ordering more from Yado soon.
