Technically, shea butter is a product extracted from the nuts of the African shea tree, but unlike many other tree products, it’s low in proteins and doesn’t trigger allergies. It works like an emollient that softens and heals skin by providing it with the essential nutrients and fatty acids.

Natural Shea Butter is completely pure with the superpower of healing your skin. It contains vitamin A, the one vitamin that is certainly a must for healthy skin and anti-inflammatory agents as well as a sunscreen agent.

You can easily call Shea Butter, the best friend of your skin. It’s quite difficult to get your hands on something completely pure. And when you’re down with facial skin issues, like itching, swelling, blemishes, wrinkles, allergies, or sunburns, you would definitely want to go for something organic. Natural Shea Butter is known to transform your skin completely in about 4 to 6 weeks.

Yes, for sure. That’s what makes it so special. Our unrefined Shea Butter is made by traditional methods of processing. This means no chemicals or colors are added to it.

The color can vary slightly depending on the process of cooking. But mainly the color is close to ivory, more like off-white.

The yellow color of Shea butter comes from the Borututu Tree in Ghana. This tree is basically known for its use in making tea and other detox fluids that are good for healing inflammations.

Well, since it’s organic, yes. But we won’t call it an odor. It’s more like a nutty aroma of the Shea butter.

The Shea butter has a smooth texture but it becomes a bit grainy when melted and not tempered whiles cooling down and solidifying. It’s grainy because shea butter is made up of different types of fatty acids with different melting points and texture. The various different fatty acids will naturally separate when allowed to cool down without tempering.

Shea Butter works like magic. We believe every single person needs it at some point in their life. It can be used for medical purposes like small skin injuries and irritations or it can be used as a beauty product for flawless skin. So basically, everyone can use it because of its properties. Shea Butter can be used for skin issues that include:

• Acne
• Burns
• Itchiness
• Skin allergies
• Inflammations
• Rash
• Dryness
• Wound Healing
• Wrinkles

It should be stored in cool and dark areas below room temperature, away from direct sunlight because that would keep melting it to a point where it might lose its healing properties. So, it can be refrigerated. Since it doesn’t have any preservatives it can be stored for about 12-24 months. If you want to add natural preservatives, you might add vitamin E for extending its shelf life. Keep it in airtight containers away from heat.

Fresh shea nuts are collected by SOPAM trained women groups. Since the Shea nut is quite wet when it is collected, the process of parboiling, drying, bagging, packaging, and storage has to be done efficiently to ensure that the free fatty acid content is as low as possible. The quality of our Shea nuts and products is the best because we pay attention to details. Our Shea products are the best in terms of quality as well as prices.

Different methods can be used to get Shea Butter. We believe that the consistent quality of Shea Butter can be obtained by the water extraction method. But the credit of our high-quality product goes to the strong ground that we hold in the Shea Nut export industry.

Our networks are strong and we make sure to buy the best quality nuts. The drying, bagging, and packaging of the nuts have a great effect on the quality of our Shea Butter. So, all these processes guarantee a consistent quality of our Shea Butter.

Buyers generally go for the goods that have a good reputation. Ghana has earned its reputation for producing high-quality nuts with a low free fatty acid content. But the high quality of nuts is not the only reason for buyers to prefer Ghana.

Another important factor is the political stability of Ghana and the almost non-existent interference of government in the Shea sub-sector, unlike many other countries. This means that the buyers can have an undisturbed and continuous supply. The marketing channels in Ghana are also quite well defined. That’s why Shea Butter is generally preferred to be bought from Ghana.

Definitely! Don’t worry about your skin type. Shea Butter can be used for all skin types. It is the right choice for you whether you want to treat minor skin injuries, old age skin, or you are looking for a product to get flawless skin. It is a product that every household should have.

We do not have a stock of Shea Butter in our facility because we process it on demand. But if you want to know the general shelf life of Shea Butter, that would be approximately 24 months.

That’s a good question. Since we have high-quality Natural Shea Butter, the prices should be high. But SOPAM LIMITED Ltd owns a processing facility in Ghana where our employees are trained to process the Shea Butter efficiently. The high prices are usually because of middlemen. However, when it comes to our company, there are no middlemen between our company and the producers. That’s why the prices are relatively low.

Yes, you can free samples of the product. We send out our samples to international importers provided they take responsibility for shipping and handling charges. After we get receipts of the shipping and handling charges, we start sending out the free samples from Ghana, West Africa. This whole process takes about four to ten days.

We use some special ingredients in the black soap that give it this distinct color. The principal ingredient of black soap is cocoa pod ash. Known for its anti-aging properties and high concentration of antioxidants, natural potash is a favorite organic skincare ingredient all over the world. It is made by roasting and burning dried plantain skins, palm leaves, cocoa pod, and tree barks of certain trees. The resulting ash is leached and used to make the soap.

You can use any soap at any time you please! If you have a particular skin condition like acne or neurodermatitis, it is important to make sure that your skin is bacteria-free and clean at all times. In this case, use the black soap regularly. It will keep your skin clean and fresh the whole day.  Black soap has antibacterial properties. It also helps to remove all kinds of toxins and pollutants from your skin.
