Please read this before you consider buying WHITE, REFINED,
ODOURLESS AND COLOURLESS "PURE SHEA BUTTER"!
Here at Begin-Again we are horrified.
Horrified and stunned...why?
We feel it's time we spoke out about the plain, raw, unrefined
truth about REALLY PURE Shea Butter!
We had our own eyes opened when we started researching the
product prior to buying it and stocking it here and we feel you
deserve to know the facts.
For some time now we have been all too aware that other companies
who are selling "pure Shea Butter" are knowingly and willingly
selling a different product altogether.
If you see the words "refined", "colourless", "odourless" or
described as "white" in colour,
you are NOT buying PURE SHEA BUTTER.
The refining process does kill off the natural goodness so
abundantly found in Shea Butter in its raw state and you are
essentially buying something quite useless.
I urge you, even if you do not buy your Shea Butter from us,
to PLEASE, PLEASE read up about the properties and
characteristics of PURE Shea Butter, see: http://www.ceci.ca/ceci/en/medias_
and_information/karite/discover_shea_butter.html
When you purchase pure Shea Butter from us, you will find that
there is only one ingredient...100% pure Shea Butter which has been produced under Fairtrade guidelines and organically produced.
Our Shea Butter is yellowy-beige in colour and has a nutty smell
which fades after a while.
Please do your research, like we did, and insist on ONLY the
best, purest and genuinely natural Shea Butter.

premium quality moisturiser and still beat the credit crunch.
* A pot of Shea Butter makes a wonderful present for a man or a woman -
my husband (who NEVER used any kind of moisturiser EVER!) loves using
the Shea Butter on his hands as he had problem skin on his hands which
has been helped by the Shea Butter.
So, our pure, unrefined Shea Butter can be used on your dry scalp,
your face, your lips, arms, legs and feet, is natural and available in
loads of sizes and great prices - worth trying isn't it?
The Science Bit!
Our pure unrefined shea butter comes from the nuts of wild shea trees scattered
across the fields and forests of the wooded savanna in central and
northern Togo and Ghana.
This unrefined shea butter is a beautiful creamy butter that is made traditionally
under fair trade and organic guidelines. This shea butter is not extracted using
hexane or other chemicals, bleached, or deodorised.
We do not add preservatives, yellow colouring agents (natural or artificial),
or other additives to our unrefined shea butter.
We bring it to you fresh in its purest & most natural state. Like all premium
unrefined shea butters, it has a characteristic nutty scent, which disappears
after a few minutes when rubbed on skin.
Unrefined shea butter is a very versatile active ingredient for skin
and hair care products, and has excellent anti-aging, soothing and moisturizing
properties.The moisturizing and healing properties of shea butter have
recently been discovered by the western cosmetic industry,
but shea butter has been a mainstay of African pharmacology for centuries.
Its benefits include:
* Shea Butter contains Vitamin A and E

while leaving it feeling soft and smooth with no oily residue.

I can personally recommend this amazing product, I use it myself and would not
be without it now, and once you've used it you won't want to be without it either.
