Its a required process before exporting the container. **Q: Does the proceeds go back into the ommunity of women tbat create this product?** A: Absolutely! Village Women own their company and sell their Shea butter to FairTaleGhana by price asked by them. And even though the price they asked is three four times higher than regular market price we didn’t bargain with them. After all our mission is to prove that ethical business is possible! Fair prices to producers and best, 100% natural products to our clients! ❤️🙌 You can read everything about us from Fairtaleghana.org **Q: On the package it doesn't actually say organic... how come it says it's organic on amazon? is this food grade cuz i don't see a label for food grade?** A: It is considered organic because of where it is being harvested: in the wild, far from manmade contaminants and pesticides. Visit their website, it will explain it. **Q: Hello, does Amazon still place their own plastic packaging around this product, or does it simply come as the pouch?** A: Hi 👋 our Shea butter is packaged into plastic bags in Ghana and then put into the paper pouch. In order to use as less plastic as possible. But unfortunately we still have to use plastic because haven’t found an alternative way to ship it from Ghana to USA. 😒 Glass is to heavy, metal gets too hot, paper doesn’t hold the Shea butter when it melts ☹️ If you have ideas how we could end up using plastic for good, please share with us .. 🙏 ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Butter from heaven! *by M***H on July 9, 2021* I ordered this a few weeks ago & it is the best Shea butter I’ve ever used. Shea butter is already one of my must have items in my toiletries. It is antibacterial, antifungal, antimicrobial, anti inflammatory, moisturizing, gentle enough to add anywhere on the body! Seriously, anywhere, I even got some in my eye yesterday, completely by accident, however, it did not hurt one bit. And do not worry if you have sensitive or acne prone skin. This will only help, it will not clog your pores even if it feels heavy putting it on. It will absorb & be amazing, especially effective when you put it on right before bed. I always use it after bathing, when my skin will absorb the most, just rub it all over. It even reduces sweating, including underarms. I live in a hot, humid climate. The fact that it reduces sweating, and of course being anti bacterial helps with smell, is amazing to me.Did I mention, I love this shea butter! Has a mild nutty smell, as shea butter should. It is easy to apply. Don’t let some small clumps of butter deter you, it spreads just fine. I also use it on my dogs. Their noses, paws, even when their coats seems a little dry. This product really takes away the need for so many other products that don’t work as well anyway.And that’s why I bought the big one. I know it will last quite a while & I know it will stay viable for a long time. And last but not least, it also feels good to know the people who make the African shea butter are directly benefitting from my purchase.If you still aren’t sure, just take a leap of faith and do it, I cannot think of anyone that I would not recommend this to. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Scent, Feel, and Helping Women in Ghana *by C***Y on April 13, 2025* Absolutely love this Shea Butter! Great nutty scent. So smooth and creamy. Fair Trade helps women work in Ghana. Will buy again! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely the best she’s butter from an expert *by S***H on July 24, 2024* Our company has been formulating with shea butter for years, and this is the absolute highest quality, fresh, raw butter. In addition to quality, the company employees women to produce the butter and pays fair wages- it just doesn’t get any better. And one more thing- the price can’t be beat!! ## Frequently Bought Together - FairTale GHANA Raw African Shea Butter 6 LB Wild harvested, Ethically sourced, 100% Natural, Unrefined, Plant Based, Vegan, Ivory - Nettle Leaf Organic Herbal Tea - Dried Stinging Nettles - Urtica Dioica 100g - FairTale GHANA Raw African Shea Butter 16 oz / 450 gr.
