Properties
So flexible with his high content of unsaponifiable elements and vitamin E. Feel the difference just by touching your skin after a massage.
Moisturizer : the superficial layers of your skin require an acceleration of blood circulation. You will notice a tingly sensation on your skin immediately after application. The butter will penetrate deep into your skin, leaving a satin finish to the skin. The protection is real and will last a long time. Sheabutter softens the lips and gives them a protective film against the cold. Sheabutter also helps irritated noses due to allergies or colds. A little dab of butter may be applied in each nostril. For face moisturizing, concentrate on inert parts (lower part of the nose, the corners of lips). Massage about ten minutes.
Learn more why Codina Butter is different. The raw butter stays with all his vitaminic environmemt. Codina propose also a refined sheabutter, bleached and deodorized.
Our raw and refined shea butters are both obtained by cold press.
The raw butter is only filtered through mechanical filter (like a sieve). All the vitamins, fatty acids and active ingredients remain intact, the color is yellowish and the smell characteristic.
For the refined one, it is filtered through white earth for discoloring (not bleaching) and we push down the acidity below 1 pct. All of this is a totally natural process. No chemicals are ever used and there is no testing on animals. The result is that refined shea butter has no smell, is whiter and smoother but it has lost some of its active ingredients in the process. It is still excellent but the raw shea butter is a better choice when use for healing or treatment purposes.

Your Questions:
Are the Shea butter produced under free trade or organic standards?
Codina: Organic standards are organised for agricultural production. Sheabutter is a higher standard because it is wild, collected in the bush. Agricultural production of shea tree is not possible (25 years to obtain a tree).
Regarding "fair trade", we are the sole company to crush sheabutter mechanically. Hence, we need a very good raw material (nuts) and we are working with same suppliers since 25 years. We are not in the shea nuts market to follow the general trend and to obtain the best raw material prices. For us quality comes first.
