**Notice 5/22/2021 – 10/18/2021: Due to warmer weather and higher temperatures, whipped shea butters are subject to melting in the mail trucks and in your mailbox. This is something we are unable to control. If you wish to order, please understand that we shall not issue refunds for orders made during the above period due to melting. The product, even in it’s melted state, is still usable, and can be re-whipped.***
This body and hair butter is a rich and decadent blend of Shea, Olive, Coconut, Monoi, Tamanu, Babassu, Cupuacu and Murumuru. Great for sealing in moisture to skin and hair. It can be used as a body moisturizer, a pre-poo treatment, a twisting butter and more. Whatever you do though, just don’t eat it- with the way that it smells, I know it can be hard to resist!).

PREGNANCY/BREASTFEEDING WARNING: This product is not recommended for use in pregnant and breastfeeding mothers because the effects of Monoi on fetuses or infants is unknown.

SEASONAL WARNING- Butters are subject to melting. Depending on the season/temperature, this butter may melt in transit to you, especially if temperatures inside the delivery vehicles or your mailbox and etc. exceed 72 degrees. The product may still be fine to use, but when it melts, it just may partially or totally lose its whipped texture. Despite our best efforts, there is no way for us to prevent melting unless maybe the items are shipped refrigerated overnight, which would cost approximately $30 extra in shipping.
To avoid melting and disappointment, please be mindful of the temperature where you are having the butters shipped as we cannot control temperatures inside postal vehicles or your mailbox. For best results, you will want to avoid the butter sitting inside a mailbox for too long.
If the product melts, the product may not appear as fluffy inside the container and you may have to re-aerate/re-whip it using a hand mixer. If you want to avoid this altogether, please order one of our pomades, which has beeswax in it to keep the product from melting. Otherwise, request a custom order. If you have any questions, please ask before purchasing.*
I make this in small batches to ensure maximum freshness and quality. When you order, I will get to work preparing and bottling your order, so that I can ship it you, and you can receive it ASAP. If you’re like me, you don’t like to wait around for goodies you purchase online. I ship using USPS Priority mail so that you can get it the fastest, and loss/damage are covered.
Shipping outside of US:
Please contact me for a quote. I cannot ship USPS priority to places outside of the US, however, I can ship 1st class, but please note that loss/damage is NOT covered once the package leaves US soil. This is because, unfortunately, packages have been subject to theft, interception and fraud in some countries. Also, USPS has no way to track packages outside of the US.
**This product is fab, however, just like any other growth treatment, individual results may vary.
