Question

Can Shea Butter (Ultra Soft) be used at 100% concentration and packaged in a pump bottle, or is its consistency better suited for a jar?

Answer

Shea Butter (Ultra Soft) Consistency for Pump Bottles

Shea Butter (Ultra Soft) has a soft cream consistency at room temperature. While it can be used at 100% concentration and applied directly to the skin, its texture is generally too thick and viscous to be easily dispensed from a standard pump bottle designed for liquids or low-viscosity lotions.

It is more suitable for packaging in a jar or a tube where the product can be scooped or squeezed out.

If you require a liquid form of Shea Butter that can be used in a pump bottle, consider these alternatives:

  • Shea Butter (Melt, Liquid Form in Room Temperature): This product is specifically processed to be a slightly viscous liquid at room temperature, making it potentially suitable for pump dispensers.
  • Shea Butter Light Oil: This is an oil derived from Shea Butter with a light, non-greasy liquid texture that is easily absorbed and ideal for pump bottles.
