I bought the refined Shea butter because I suffer from severely chapped lips but have a tendency to develop allergies to lip balm. From everything I've read, in its refined form Shea is as close to hypoallergenic as one can get.
Speaking as someone that applied it directly to their lips, the product is exactly as described. There is no color, flavor, or scent, and it's very smooth. Not at all grainy.
Also, as a side note to anyone that might want to buy it for the same reasons I did (dermatitis, etc.) it doesn't burn on dry, cracked and chapped skin.
Soapgoods shipped my order quickly, and when I placed my order I was happy to find that they use USPS Priority Mail, and they do NOT hike up the shipping costs.
One last thing: I was impressed with the packaging. My half pound of butter was in a tightly closed plastic jar. The jar is sturdy with a screw on lid, perfect for storage. To me, that says they care about their customers, and the quality of product received, because I'm sure they could easily use a cheaper method for packing--and they didn't.
I love the shea butter refined. It has a great texture and there is no smell. Refined Vs. Raw shea? I choose refined. I can't stand the smell of raw shea butter overtime it smells worse. I love this product!
This product is an excellent base for my soaps. The texture of this is different than a shea butter that hasn't been refined, it's pure white, harder, very smooth (no graininess), slightly higher melting point, with an almost waxy feel to it. It's a wonderful product at a great price.
Great prices and packaging and the best shipping I have experienced so far. This works very well in body butters. Great feel and no overpowering smell.

This shea butter is amazing! I just purchased some from Soapgoods and made a small batch (35 tubes) of lip balm using the shea butter as my anchor emollient. I'm going to hand them out to all my friends. I was soooo pleased with the results and I'm getting wonderful feed-back. Rich and silky smooth. And one application lasts nearly all day. Thank you Soapgoods!
I had Just ordered From Soapgoods.com From all the amazing reviews I decided to buy it to make a body butter to find the link to for what inspired me to make it is in this review -_ -_ -_ -_ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGRZC-fy3eE
Searched for a better price and quality and was happily disappointed! The Shea from here is always well packaged, great quality, and melts better than anything else.
EXCELLENT PRODUCT! We developed a new product and wanted to use Shea. This was the best price locally. Plus, being able to go over and pick it up. how much better does it get. The employees that we have met at Soapgoods are the best! We actually gave one employee...
EXCELLENT PRODUCT! We developed a new product and wanted to use Shea. This was the best price locally. Plus, being able to go over and pick it up. how much better does it get. The employees that we have met at Soapgoods are the best! We actually gave one employee some of our Body Mousse and he told us that his daughter has benefited greatly from it. So happy to hear this. Great people and a great company!!!!!
Excellent product! I purchased the 4lb jar, which was packaged well for shipping. I used this shea butter to create a whipped shea butter moisturizer - it worked wonderfully!
I ordered a one pound jar to try. It was nicely sealed for mailing which I appreciated, since it's currently in the 90's heat wise, where I live! Shipped just fine and was solid when it arrived. Not grainy at all and no real smell which is good for what...
I ordered a one pound jar to try. It was nicely sealed for mailing which I appreciated, since it's currently in the 90's heat wise, where I live! Shipped just fine and was solid when it arrived. Not grainy at all and no real smell which is good for what I need. Good job Soapgoods.
I love the feel of this product and use it in my soaps. I also loved that it was packaged with the butter in chunks so it was super easy to measure out.
This is the ONLY Shea Butter I ever use! I am constantly selling out of my body butters and can thank my amazing sales to this awesome product! Thanks Soapgoods!!
This was one item on my initial order from Soapgoods and I have included it in every bar of soap I have made since receiving my order. I'm loving it. I have purchased shea butter elsewhere but from now on Soapgoods is my source. I'll be back for more!!!
"Great shea butter and its very creamy. I use this shea as well as the unrefine shea in my body butters as well as in my soaps. My customers are happy and so am I. So Give it a try and see for yourself.

I have tried other less expensive butters (saving a dollar or so total) and it was so not worth it. This is the only one I have foudn that without having to melt does not end up grainy in my butters. Keep up the good work providing exceptional products!
I have ordered refined shea butter from other sources, and it was horrible in comparison to the fresh and wonderfully packaged shea butter from soapgoods.com. A lovely butter, rich, creamy and perfect for my body butters, soaps, and lotions.
Good quality product. Works great for body butters, oils, scrubs, balms, etc. A great alternative to non refined shea; you can make it whatever fragrance you want!
