I received a sample of this shea butter from LotionCrafters. It was DIVINE! It was so smooth and creamy. It is much lighter than the other shea butter. It is almost the same texture as coconut oil before it melts, but it doesn't melt quite as fast. Have you used it in any of your recipes? Any tips? I placed and order and can't wait to experiment!
I have attached the following info from the LotionCrafters site.
Shea Nilotica is a premium Certified Organic shea butter produced from the fruit of the Vitellaria Nilotica sub species of the Karite tree which grows across Northern Uganda. Softer in texture with a very mild aroma and a light yellow color, Shea Nilotica is one of the finest shea butters we've ever carried! Shea Nilotica has a significantly higher content of olein, a glyceride of oleic acid, making it softer and creamier than its West African Shea Butter counterpart. It is high in unsaponifiables, antioxidants and cinneamic acid, a natural sunscreen. Readily absorbed into the skin and hair, it will delight you with its buttery smoothness!
