Everything But the Jar

Every week someone asks if we sell Shea butter in jars. We don't, and we're not going to.

We looked. Metal bakes under the African sun. Glass is heavy, and it breaks. Pouches and boxes travel light, waste less, and so far nothing beats them on the long road from Ghana to you.

Once it lands, your Shea butter has earned an upgrade. Give it your fanciest jar, or one of our empty tins. We love seeing them go globe-trotting. Or go full village and keep it in a calabash, the way it has been done for centuries.

✨ Empty calabash bowl. A real fruit, grown, dried and hollowed by hand. Scoop your Shea butter the way it is done in the village. Beautiful, faintly ridiculous, deeply satisfying. No two are alike, which makes it the best gift of the lot.

✨ Empty 15 g | 0.5 oz metal tin. Pocket-sized. Cuticles, lips, the bottom of a handbag. Aluminum rather than plastic, so it survives being sat on and refills forever.

✨ Empty 115 g | 4 oz metal tin. The bathroom shelf size. Decant from your pouch or box and keep the big one closed.

✨ Empty 50 ml | 1.69 fl oz glass bottle with dropper. Our 210 ml and 450 ml Baobab oil pouches already come with one. This is the spare, for the wash bag or for whoever keeps borrowing yours.

Containers only. They arrive empty, they refill endlessly, and they are built to travel beside your butter and oil.
