What it is

Pure unrefined shea butter from Alaffia, a fair-trade body care brand. Handcrafted at cooperatives in West Africa, and nothing else is added.

Intensely moisturizing raw shea butter that nourishes and softens skin with natural fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals. Unscented, cruelty-free, and fair-trade.

How to use

1. Scoop a small amount and warm it between your palms.
2. Massage into dry areas.
3. Use as often as needed.

About the brand

Alaffia

Fair trade beauty that empowers

The story of Alaffia grew out of West African soil: in 1996, a young man from Togo met a young woman from rural Washington State, and out of their shared calling Alaffia, a social enterprise, was born (founded 2003). Its values are Beauty, Equality, and Empowerment, with fair-trade, cruelty-free ingredients handcrafted by women-led cooperatives in West Africa. Profits fund education, maternal health, and environmental sustainability projects.

We stock Alaffia because their shea-based body care genuinely works, and every purchase supports women-led cooperatives in West Africa.

Skincare questions, answered

Where does this go in my routine?

Thinnest to thickest: cleanser, toner, serum, moisturizer, then SPF in the morning. This product's How to use section above tells you its exact step.

When will I see results?

Give it 4 to 6 weeks of consistent use — that's one full skin cycle. Hydration shows up in days; tone and texture take weeks. If your skin reacts badly (stinging, new breakouts that don't settle within a week), stop using it.

I have sensitive skin. Will this irritate me?

Patch test first: a dab behind your ear or along your jawline, wait 24 hours. Fragrance-free formulas are the safest bet for reactive skin — check the highlights on this page.
